We provide almost same day response to seniors 60 and over with a household income of $1,000 a month for one or $1,100 for two. Our newest programis focused on reducing electric bills for seniors by purchasing and installing energy efficient refridgerators, stoves, window a/c units etc. Many low income seniors have only one burner on their stove, no gaskets on their refriderator so their electric bill is more than t
they can pay.

We are also gearing up for our annual Senior Thanksgiving Luncheon that provides a special holiday meal for seniors who are in special facilities. More than 1,000 seniors are provided with a special meal every year......the only one they receive.
