West Chester Area Senior Center

Mickey Hall
As a lifelong resident of West Chester, I have been aware of the Senior Center and all it has to offer to our community. Now as a board member I have a much better understanding of the opportunities offered to seniors in our area. The staff is devoted and committed to the service and betterment our seniors. The services offered help area seniors to stay connected and engaged in their health, wellness, education and entertainment. Providing an opportunity for seniors to come together in a safe and welcoming environment to share so many experiences is a benefit to them and their families.
Please share the upcoming event of Casino Night to be held on November 2, 2024 with friends and family. Come out and join many seniors and friends for a night of great fun.

When I was asked to be a board member in 2020, I had no idea what impact this amazing organization had in the community. COVID caused the center to shut down for almost two years, and to say that volunteers stepped up to continue the commitment to our seniors, is an understatement. The hours spent continuing to support our seniors with meals and food items as well as the out pouring from donations were beyond what we had imagined. Watching the center reopen and seeing the multitude of seniors returning for a well needed connection with all that the center offers: meals, exercise, art, computers, health and wellness, activities, entertainment, and a sense of belonging. Our main event "Casino Night" Nov. 2, 2024 will add another aspect of bringing the seniors together for a fun and eventful evening. I feel fortunate to be a part of this amazing organization and to continue to support the mission of: Enriching the lives of our senior neighbors through friendship, activities, education and nourishment

West Chester Area Senior Center is an incredible nonprofit! So much time, energy and resources and utilized to provide seniors with a great experience! The staff truly cares so much about all of their seniors and does everything they can t provide a great experience. I can't say enough good things about this nonprofit!

West Chester Area Senior Center is a second home to so many seniors from our area. They get to enjoy engaging with friends over breakfast or lunch, taking exercise classes, meeting with local nurses and medical staff to further educate and support them and even get their taxes done! I have had the honor of being on Board for over 5 years now and have witnessed the difference this amazing facility has made in many seniors lives. The wonderful staff has a level of dedication second to none. The West Chester Area Senior Center is a GREAT non profit!!!

The West Chester Area Senior Center is an active place to meet friends, take classes, get healthy and enjoy a home cooked lunch. The seniors there have a strong bond, but there's always room for new people. The staff is caring and creative, they keep things fresh and interesting. Highly recommend this community spot.

What an amazing organization! I am so honored to serve on the board. Going into my second year, I cannot express how impressed I am with the West Chester Area Senior Center, from serving nutritious meals daily to the seniors, providing tax and computer assistance, coordinating the Corner Cabinet for weekly groceries, managing two volunteer book stores; the list goes on and on. How fortunate are we to have such a welcoming, professional, outstanding community center to serve the needs of the seniors in our area. Casino Night is coming up on November 2, 2024! - Save the date!

The West Chester Area Senior Center is an extraordinary place - a Great Nonprofit! I have had the privilege of being involved with the WCASC and a member of the Board for over 3 years now. The volunteers and staff at the WCASC help our seniors remain active, healthy and engaged in the community as they navigate the many challenges of aging. We provide nutrition, enriching opportunities, programs and activities providing health and wellness, and connections for our seniors throughout the community. The WCASC has made an significant difference in my own family by providing my mother-in-law a place to socialize and serve as a volunteer adding a meaningful part of her life in her senior years. The West Chester Area Senior Center is an incredible nonprofit that we are fortunate to have in our community!

WCASC is a great organization which helps the Seniors in the West Chester Community stay connected. The center opens their doors to a diverse group of people. It's a place where someone can get a bite to eat, play games, learn computer skills, exercise or even get help with their tax preparation.

I am honored to serve on the Board of this amazing organization! The West Chester Area Senior Center is truly family for many seniors who come to be with friends, exercise, engage in activities and spend time meeting and making friends! The staff members take the time to understand the needs of the senior community and design programs to meet the needs and Kathy is an amazing leader! The number of community organizations that partner with the Senior Center speaks to the shared commitment throughout the County to lift up our seniors so they can remain as healthy, active and independent as possible for years to come.

The West Chester Area Senior Center is a second-family to many seniors! For some it is a weekly stop for coffee and catching up with friends. For others it's a hot meal and a place to come. WCASC offers a daily breakfast and lunch program, a weekly food distribution program, health and wellness, and enrichment programs and connects seniors with resources. I recommend the WCASC to anyone because once you walk through the doors you feel welcome!

West Chester Area Senior Center (WCASC) is a Great Nonprofit, indeed! WCASC helps seniors prevent and navigate challenges and life-altering moments associated with aging so they can remain as healthy, active, engaged, and independent as possible. A fall can lead to loss of independence. A trip to the grocery store increasingly causes anxiety. While some seniors own and operate cars to go shopping, others do not. Some cannot afford food and basic needs. In response, WCASC offers nutrition, health and wellness, and enrichment programs and connects seniors with resources, including assistance with Medicare, PA MEDI, free tax filings, and more. Also, proceeds from WCASC's two local "Second Reading" used bookstores, operated primarily by senior volunteers, support WCASC's programs and services.

The West Chester Senior Center is a place you should know about, visit and volunteer…. You will leave there feeling so uplifted about your community and the kindness and goodwill you experience by everyone around you.
The senior center provides a safe place for our our seniors to come for meals, for education on many different topics, for exercise, for help w taxes or sharing a meal and spending time laughing w new and old friends. The staff is unwavering in their dedication and countless hours to make their members and everyone who comes through the door feel valued, cared for and uplifted. The director, Kathy, is so dedicated to this center, as a leader she is a great example of what it means to “give it all” for a place and mission we believe in.
Thank you to the amazing people who make this center the special, valued place it is in our community. We are blessed to have it !

I have volunteerd at the Senior Center working with a group of cowokers to deliver goods donated from our annual food drive and spending the day sorting and organizing foods and cleaning the storage areas. I also had the opprtunity to tour the Center, participate in one of thier execrcise sessions (fun!), meet the Center staff and many seniors there that day enjoying breakfast. It was a wonderful experience. This organization is extremely valuable to the West Chester area community and the seniors who benefit from their services. They've served hundreds of thousands of nutritious daily breakfasts and lunches, built a brand new onsite “Corner Cabinet” food distribution center which provides free weekly groceries to their members, and offer fellowship and socialization for 1,700+ seniors to help alleviate isolation. These are just a few of the positive impacts this organization has had on so many seniors in the community. I'm looking forward to more volunteer opprtunities.

This is such a wonderful community organization. My mother-in-law takes advantage of the many programs offered including the art classes, fitness classes and she even gets assistance at tax time. The many volunteers and employees are the heart of the West Chester Area Senior Center and give 100% every day to make this a welcoming place for everyone.

The West Chester Area Senior Center is a special place. Chester County Seniors are some of our most valuable resources and often are truly under served. The West Chester Area Senior Center has been and continues to be on a mission to change that. This is a place where seniors can meet with others, take advantage of so many programs, and get access to healthy food. The staff is second to none and with minimal hands so much gets done. This is in large part to the amazing volunteer community that makes Chester County so special. If you have never stopped by, please do. Even if you are not a senior, this center is good for your soul!

The West Chester Area Senior Center is truly family for many seniors who come to be with friends, exercise, engage in activities and spend time meeting and making friends! The staff members take the time to understand the needs of the senior community and design programs to meet the needs and Kathy is an amazing leader! The number of community organizations that partner with the Senior Center speaks to the shared commitment throughout the County to lift up our seniors so they can remain as healthy, active and independent as possible for years to come. Kathy is a hands on example of the love that permeates the senior center!

WCASC offers a friendly and welcoming atmosphere to its participants in my experience as a volunteer. The facility is clean, bright, and well organized. A host of activities are available; some particularly of note include: several exercise/strengthening classes and a well stocked food cupboard.

West Chester Area Senior Center has offered such a positive experience on all levels! they offer something for everyone! There is such a positive relationship with both the members and local community volunteers, whether it be college students or businesses. It's a win win for all that are involved.

I was introduced to the West Chester Area Senior Center right before covid by a colleague of mine who asked for help in the kitchen to help serve lunch. Being a little intimidated by thought of serving over a large group of people, i was assured it would be a piece of cake, and they were right! They are super organized and everyone is happy to be there making it a very pleasant place to volunteer. I had a fabulous time meeting all these great people and helping out that I've also recruited other friends, colleagues and family members to all help out as well. You really see how your contribution directly impacts the people you help. Also I feel like i get to spend that time i missed with my own grandparents who lived in a different country and passed when i was younger.

I have volunteered with the WCASC for about two years now! I got in touch with them through The Abbé Society, a service organization that I am affiliated with at West Chester University. Those at the center work tirelessly to ensure a fun, safe, inclusive environment for all members and volunteers! They have paired up with multiple organizations and college programs, and the hospitality and communication with the center has been nothing but flawless. I have grown to love this community, and am so happy that I have the opportunity to volunteer with them as I look forward to coming every time!

My 80 year old father greatly enjoyed his days at WCASC! Every week he would lace up his sneakers and scoot out the door to attend 2 or 3 “silver sneaker”classes.
My father was a widower and new to West Chester. He was a quiet man all his life, at the Center he found a vibrant welcoming environment that made his transition to the West Chester area invaluable.
WCASC and their dedicated staff bring joy to so many Seniors-what a gift to our community. Thank you.

The West Chester Senior Center is a wonderful place to meet people. Getting together for socialization is important to seniors. We have exercise programs, Spanish, French, and German Clubs, Current Events, and Bible Study. Many groups come to the Center and offer support on many topics with supportive topics on health and well-being. Hot meals are served Monday - Friday.
I have enjoyed being a member here. The many activities that I have enjoyed also developed into new friendships.

I've worked with the West Chester Area Senior Center for several years now assisting with heath care related presentations for members. It's always a joy to see the same faces year after year. It's clear that the staff works very hard to provide a mixture of fun and education to it's members!

West Chester Senior Center has been welcoming Villanova Nursing students to the site for years. It allows the students to gain more experience teaching health topics to community members and the seniors are so receptive towards the students. Thank you WCSC for being so welcoming!

I am a professor at the M. Louise Fitzpatrick College of Nursing at Villanova University. I have been bringing senior nursing students to the WCSC to conduct health promoting activities for over seven years. The students state that the experience at the WCSC is one of their best clinical experiences. They enjoy seeing vibrant seniors, engaged in physical activity, life-long learning, and socializing with their friends. The students conduct health education classes, blood pressure screening, physical strength screening, and write newsletters for the seniors. When the students conduct classes with the seniors, the audience is very inquisitive and stimulated to learn more about the topic. The students state that the WCSC is a “happy place.” One student stated, “the WCSC is an ideal place for seniors to enhance their quality of life. It is a place for strengthening your mind, body, and spirit. The WCSC has all of the programs we learn about in class to enhance the health of seniors.” I have had students who have decided that they wanted to work as patient educators in the community because of their experience at the WCSC.

The center provides excellent programs and activities that support wellness, healthy aging, and independence, as well as resources .
Research has shown that older adults who participate in senior center programs are better at managing chronic diseases and can sometimes delay the onset of these ailments. They found that participants experience measurable improvements in physical, social, emotional, and mental wellbeing.
The dedicated staff at the West Chester Area Senior Center provides a feeling of community to their seniors. Dedication to their members can be felt as you walk through the building. "It is a place where everybody knows your name" and gives you a sense of family.
The Corner Cupboard is truly, a remarkable creative food distribution center. Come check it out!

I have volunteered in the Corner Cupboard and the staff are very friendly and helpful The Seniors are so appreciative and makes me feel good to make them smile.

The West Chester Senior Center is truly an organization that can reinvent themselves even under the extreme circumstances of our recent pandemic. When our Center had to be closed we went into "crisis mode" and began a food distribution program to feed our most needed seniors and then expanded it to a once in a week food distribution program that has served over 165,000 meals since Covid-19! We have now added a fully functioning food program know as the Corner Cabinet which will be able to serve our community and seniors for years to come. Truly remarkable staff and organization that has the best interest of our seniors!

An amazing organization servicing the senior community in the West Chester area. Through this tough Covid year, the WCASC continues to move forward with services and meals. Now, an amazing 150,000 to 170,000 meals have been served throughout this year. Throughout the Covid headwinds this organization has improved the facility with new flooring, security, convenience tools, and a designated food service area that will provide even better food opportunities. All these improvement will be recognized when the center opens its doors again. This organization is not sitting still!

I am so impressed with the level and variety of support the center provides to the senior community. Not one beat was missed during Covid and their true dedication was evident by how successfully they pivoted in 2020. I saw first hand a food distribution program developed overnight that fed up to 700 seniors weekly during the pandemic. The center provided 150,000 meals in the 12 months following the closure forced by COVID-19 in March 2020. They found creative ways to keep our beloved seniors engaged during the pandemic – not only food, but a new Pen Pal program, telephone assistance, outdoor walks, etc. Through the help of many volunteers, seniors can take exercise classes, get computer help, or just visit with friends. This non-profit provides tremendous value to our senior community and I am honored to be a part of its future.

The West Chester Area Senior Center has now distributed over 165,000 meals since the start of the COVID-19 pandemic! Great job to all the folks at the WCASC!

I teach a class at WCASC. People there are so welcoming and you feel that you want to go back whenever you have any free time. I loved teaching there and seeing everybody's face! My class was always around lunch time. It smelled so good around lunch time. I have never eaten the food but I always saw a lot of people enjoying the meal! I am 100 % sure everyone who have been there misses the place as we cannot go there due to Covid 19. Hope we can go back there soon.

I have been bringing senior nursing students to the West Chester Area Senior Center for their health promotion course for more than five years. The students and I have thoroughly enjoyed working with the seniors and staff at the center. We look forward to each day at the senior center because upon our arrival we are greeted by an enthusiastic staff, a group of smiling seniors, and the opportunity to participate in a variety of high quality programs designed to enhance the quality of life and well-being of seniors. My students have stated, “We wish that we could spend more time at the center. It is an ideal place for health promotion clinical. It is such a happy place.”

A wonderful non-profit organization! By providing an abundance of wellness activities and essential services, they help our area Seniors to remain independent and connected to their community.
I am honored and happy to be a volunteer for this population and the Center.

WCASC offers a multitude of programs and services for seniors. I have been in the center many times these past few years and always see activity, smiles and groups of friends enjoying each other's company. The team there is friendly and Jess, in particular, makes sure that there is something for everyone.
Their Night at the Races has become tradition!

I’ve been teaching a Tai Chi class at WC senior center for quite a few years. Every time I enter the building, I receive a warm greeting and a big smile. I’ve constantly witnessed the staff running activities, or saying hello during lunch etc. All the members I’ve come to know or have spoken to, love the staff and different activities. It’s a great place for seniors to socialize and it’s a safe environment!
Thanks!

The WCASC is tremendous in meeting the needs of the West Chester Community Seniors. Huge numbers of volunteers work to make this center a true "home away from home." Lives up to the motto, " Enriching the lives of our senior neighbors through friendship, activities, education, and nourishment." All kinds of activities... meals, exercise, help with taxes and Medicare, cards, fashion shows, etc. Multi-Generational program with the Chester County Family Academy brings young and olf together. Emergency Food Program during the pandemic. Every day, the WCASC works hard and effectivly to meet the everyday needs of WC's Seniors!

This center provides opportunities for everyone to participate in, no matter your age or your physical ability. The staff is very friendly and always willing to help you with whatever you need.

As a senior-serving professional, West Chester Area Senior Center is one that I am constantly referring to for my clients. The resources, programming, and community at WCASC far exceed what I've seen at other centers during my career. The staff and members are engaged, enthusiastic, and open to trying new things. I look forward to my visits there!

I am very fortunate to be associated in a small way with the Senior Center as board member for the past three years. Strong leadership at the top of this organization has continued to provide essential basic benefits to the community in the most daunting situations. The continuous daily challenges are met with "what do we need to do to make this happen." This unwavering attitude ultimately results in ongoing success each and every day. Jeff L

Before Covid hit, the WCASC was my home away from home, playing cards and socializing. I am a former Board member and loved volunteering for their fund raisers. Since they closed in March they have delivered over 32,000 meals to seniors in need. What an amazing feat. The center has been open for 45 years and has become a haven for so many seniors in the West Chester area. The management and employees are always ready to help with whatever your needs are. Can’t wait until it is open again.

I have served with the Center for almost 10 years and have enjoyed every minute of being part of what this amazing organization does. 2020 has been no exception to the feats of greatness that this organization accomplishes year after year. In my mind the most tremendous of those feats was an Emergency Food Distribution Program that in its first four months, served 32,600 meals with the help of our small staff and many community partners and donors. I am proud to be part of an organization that even in the worst of times, they become a shining star for those seniors in need.

I have been affiliated with the Center, in one way then another, since 2006., and it is a fantastic service for the people of West Chester. I was never more impressed than I am with their efforts to continue the innovative delivery of services to seniors during the pandemic shutdown.

Watching the seniors enjoy the meals and the activities ( pre-Covid) has given me great joy. I have been involved for several years with WCASC’s annual fundraising event.

I know that the staff has been doing all they can during the pandemic to make sure none of their folks go hungry. Thank you guys for all that you do.

My husband was on the board for 6 years and I was very proud of his service. With him being active I found out about this Excellent organization. I feel this is a very well run, very professional and definitely a friendly kind staff. I feel it give a safe and happy environment for our elders. With getting older I hope this Senior Center is still around so I can be a part of this fun organization. Please continue to services to our seniors for many years to come. Thank you!!

Serving our Seniors as a board member of the West Chester Area Senior Center has provided me with an up close view of how dedicated volunteers with excellent leadership can change the lives of our community. With the COVID crisis threatening the well being of so many, the West Chester Area Senior Center pulled out all the options available and brought hope and smiles to our seniors along with 36,000 meals! This is Community Action at its best.

I’m a recent board member. I am blown away at the services that the WCASC provides. Beyond the 42,000 meals it provided last year. Beyond the 3400+ seniors that enjoy the center. The center is a social, meals, wellness and information provider that serves such an important group of people. The dedication of the staff is like no other! Passion for their work does not describe how much they love their work. Through these uncertain and tough times the Center marches on servicing the community.

As a board member for the past three years it has been a pleasure and honor to be part of a Nonprofit community who has served our seniors for the past 45 years. This Center is built on a solid foundation of over 250 volunteers along with a dedicated staff and Board who truly believe in the motto "Enriching the lives of our senior neighbors through friendship, activities, education and nourishment". Due to COVID-19 it has been a challenge for all of us especially our seniors. Through dedication, commitment, donations and care, the Senior Center was able to keep it's promise to our seniors by providing an Emergency Food Distribution Program and distribute over 32,600 meals in just the first four months to seniors in need. This Senior Center is a Top-Rated Non-Profit program that continues to invest and re-invent themselves to better serve and provide for our senior community.

The West Chester area Senior Center is celebrating its 45th year of community service as a 501 (c)(3) organization this year I couldn't be more proud to be associated with this amazing organization. This center serves approximately 3,400 seniors every year. Last year alone the center served 42,000 meals. And this year with the challenges posed by the COVID crisis, the center has put out more than 50,000 meals since March of this year. The staff at the center are second to none. The small staff at the center are selfless and provide unbelievable care to our senior community. I can't thank this organization enough for the good they provide and I want to personally thank all who make this possible.

I am simply amazed with how this non-profit has been able to help during this pandemic. In just 4 months, the center has been able to distribute over 32,600 meals to their seniors in need. Without the dedicated staff, volunteers and especially the community partners getting behind all of this, none of this could have been accomplished.

Great work by all!!

Being a part of the West Chester Area Senior Center is one of the most fulfilling roles I have played in my career. The Center's staff work tirelessly to provide a safe, enjoyable environment for our seniors. There is something for everyone there including exercise classes, health and wellness screenings and a plethora of programs that provide meaningful and engaging activities including cross generational opportunities for or members. When the global health crisis hit this year the Center pivoted from on-site meal service to weekly meal and food deliveries to hundreds of seniors in need. To date we have surpassed 28,000 meal deliveries since March with plans to continue to service this urgent need.

The West Chester Area Senior Center is a place for life long learning! There are always exciting programs happening! The friendly, caring staff have a strong commitment to the health and wellness of their members offering many programs for wellness and self care. Make new friends in classes of your interest; gardening, music appreciation, exercising or try a moving meditation Qigong class. This place is sure to keep your mind and body moving! Stop in, try out a class or program. You will be greeted by the welcoming volunteers and members!

Terrific place. Home away from home for so many. Meet and spend the day with your friends. Have your main meal for the day. Play cards. Take an exercise class. Learn how to use the computer. It all happens at WCASC. Beautiful facility. Great atmosphere. Also, a great place to volunteer.

The West Chester Area Senior Center feels like a home away from home as soon as you walk inside. The staff and volunteers truly care about every facet of well being of their members - from physical wellness, financial wellness, life-long learning, and everything in between. The greater West Chester community is undoubtedly a better place for our seniors because of the West Chester Area Senior Center.

I have been involved with the West Chester Area Senior Center since 2003.

It is a fun and friendly spot for local seniors to spend the day! It is always bustling with people, smiles, and activity. From breakfast, lunch, and snacks, to exercise programs, to classes in everything from computers to languages, to just sitting quietly and enjoying a cup of coffee in the café, “The Center” is a warm and welcoming place. The Center also serves as an important information hub for seniors. There are in-person information and referral services available and we host AARP’s annual tax preparation services--my 90-year old Mom has taken advantage of this service for a few decades now!

The West Chester Area Senior Center lives its mission everyday…Enriching the lives of our senior neighbors through friendship, activities, education, and nourishment.

I’ve been connected with WCASC for several years. The facts that they welcome 3400 seniors each year, have served nearly 29,000 meals in 2018, and boasts more than 400 volunteers who gave nearly 31,000 hours are secondary to one thing... the WCASC offers friendship and a welcoming “place to be” for so many who may find themselves alone. A wide array of programs allow all members to participate in activities that interest them. A meal shared with others brings smiles to so many who might otherwise be eating alone. A small staff supports a large purpose and their dedication is evident every day. I am in awe of what is accomplished each and every day in this organization.

They have 30,680 hours of volunteer service per year – an over 1 MILLION dollar value! Spectacular choice for people looking to make a difference!

Excellent organization. Very well run. Professional and kind staff. One of the most amazing services for seniors with many years of experience serving the West Chester and surrounding communities. Love this place!

Chester County Family Academy and the WCASC share a vision, we both strive to make a difference in lives of young and old in our community. CCFA students are fortunate to walk out one door and enter into the WCASC and be surrounded by caring adults that help children develop life skills, builds self-esteem and confidence. The Grand Friends intergenerational program creates memories of a life time.

The WCASC provides a fun and secure environment for many of our Senior Citizens. I'm proud to be a Board Member of a fantastic organization. The staff and volunteers are project and goal oriented with the major goal of keeping our Seniors active , healthy ,engaged and happy ...Mission accomplished !

Best senior center in PA. I’ve been working with them for five years. They live and breathe helping seniors make their lives better every day!

I have been involved with the West Chester Area Senior Center for many years. Is one of my happy places. The seniors are always busy taken different classes, enjoying a meal together or just hanging out. The staff, board members and volunteers are always making sure everyone feels safe and welcome! I love this place and the services we provided.

The West Chester Area Senior Center is a much needed staple for Chester County's aging population. Nutritious meals, cognitive engagement, physical & cognitive exercise, access to tax & medical resources, and inter-generational activities are services seniors need to stay healthy and to retain quality of life. The WC Senior Center excels at offering ALL OF THIS AND MORE!

Just give a quick call to any of the area adult day care centers or assisted living communities to see how much this type of engagement would cost and the value of the WC Senior Center is immediately established. From foreign language classes, to exercise classes, hot meals, parties, outings, and more - the WC Senior Center has so much to offer.

The WC Senior Center is also extraordinarily effective in the stewardship of its funds. Much of the work performed at the Center is done on a volunteer basis - some of the volunteers give more than 2,000 hours/year (that's more than a full time job!)!

There are so many positive attributes about the WC Senior Center, I could go on for pages.... Suffice it to say it is a much-needed community resource that does a great job at providing for its participants.

The West Chester Senior Center has been a very valuable community health partner. Our collaboration in providing blood pressure and hydration screenings, a Parkinson's Disease Support Group and an annual Falls Prevention and Awareness Expo at the center is testimony to their commitment to the wellness of our senior population. Everyone at the center goes above and beyond to make sure the needs of our older adults are met!

The WCASC is a "happening place." There is an activity for everybody, from exercise, to computer classes to QiGong and yoga. The staff, volunteers and members are always so welcoming. If you are looking to make new friends, take a class, have breakfast or lunch then I recommended joining the WCASC.

The West Chester Senior Center is one of the finest organizations serving seniors in Chester County. Their programs are first class, their staff are professional and dedicated and the environment is a very welcoming, family type environment.

With the help of over 44,000 volunteer hours, this incredible staff serves over 28,000 meals to over 3,500 seniors. Add to that the countless classes, Health and Wellness programs, assistance in navigating Medicare and Medicaid, and tax preparation assistance, this West Chester gem serves our seniors with dignity and great care. Plus, it's a fun place to be!

WCASC is a fabulous organization in West Chester catering to the area senior population. This is a haven for our community seniors to meet, eat and socialize. There are various courses and exercise programs offered daily. The annual " Night at the Races" fund raising events is always sold out. It's a blast. Buy your tickets early!! A very involved Board and Staff make the WCASC a welcome destination for our "mature" friends and neighbors.

West Chester Area Senior Center provides meals for 3,500 seniors each year. They offer programs all day long for information, health & exercise and just good fun. They partnership with other community organizations such as Chester County Family Academy, Chester County Department of Aging and the local Rotary Club. The staff is always friendly and inviting. They offer a safe clean environment for our seniors.
