In 1978, Grandparent's Day officially became a national holiday. The purpose of this holiday is to commemorate and pay respect to grandparents and to recognize the importance that older adults can have on the lives of others. 

​

​

This year, Grandparent's Day is celebrated on September 10th. To honor or remember a grandparent, consider making a donation to OCAPS. For only $20, we will post the name of the grandparent you have not forgotten who means so much to you. You may also submit a photo of your grandparent who we will feature on our website.

To honor or remember a grandparent, please complete this form.

A tradition that was prominently featured when this holiday was created is the presentation of the flower Forget-Me-Nots to one’s grandparents. Tell us which grandparents you won't forget.
