Originally established to ensure seniors have access to nutritious meals, our centers have evolved into vibrant hubs offering more than just food. We provide engaging programs and services aimed at enhancing the well-being of older adults in our community. Our centers promote socialization, fostering connections among participants and their peers, thereby creating a supportive and welcoming environment akin to a second family.

Eligibility Requirements

Individuals aged 60 and older, or spouses of individuals within this age bracket, are eligible to participate. Participants should be physically capable of engaging in activities without supervision or assistance, although those who require support must be accompanied by a caregiver or friend at all times.
