Description

Provides residential care to LOW INCOME ELDERLY, frail elders that are no longer able to live at home but are not in need of nursing home care. Too often, these low income elders go to nursing homes prematurely, because they can not afford the high cost of other assisted living care residences.

We are able to offer this very special affordable program because of the generosity of individual and corporate donors, and from many fundraising activities that we participate in each year....but each year also becomes more of a challenge to raise the necessary money to continue, because too many people do not consider the elderly to be in need of assistance. While many elderly can get by on their income and investments, there is an often ignored population of elderly that need a friend - a financial friend - to help them just a bit.
