Greetings everyone,
The Linkery’s charity for the month of August will be: Senior Community Centers
Senior Community Centers has been “providing quality and compassionate services for the survival, health, and independence of seniors living in poverty” since 1970. This San Diego-based organization provides homeless and near-homeless seniors with a network of comprehensive, integrated programs and services. Through their Nutrition and Health Preservation Services, they provide over 1,600 nutritious meals every day in addition to dietary education and health monitoring. They also provide affordable, supportive housing with an onsite nurse, social workers, and mental health professionals to address each senior’s individual needs. The organization strives to foster a sense of community among these seniors, easing the isolation in which they live and promoting positive life choices that afford them the dignity and independence they deserve.
The Senior Community Centers are a very well-run organization that is dedicated to supporting and improving the lives of an often forgetten part of our community. We all grow old eventually, so it is a blessing to know that there are such caring people maintaining the health, dignity, and quality of life that our seniors deserve.
