Review for The Senior Life Foundation Inc, Jacksonville, FL, USA
Around 5 years ago,when the organization(SLF) began helping seniors with bills they were struggling to pay, I answered the phone among other many duties. I found it particularly heartwarming to have the opportunity to work directly with each senior and help them with not only paying a bill but what they might do to conserve money by changing their lifestlye or applying for appropriate services. For example some seniors were bogged down with bank charges from overdrawn bank accounts. I suggested they move their checking accounts to a nonprofit credit union where the charges were free or minimal. I also found that some were eligible to apply for free monthly medicare charges. This change would save the senior approximately $88.00 a month for an indifinate time which could add up to thousands over a period of their senior lifetime. There are no words to describe how blessed you can be for interacting with these precious people. If you have any spare time to give I would like to encourage you to get involved with our organization or even make a donation to us to help these seniors. If you would like to find out how you can get involved or make a donation, please contact me on my cell at 904 504-8840. As the customer service representative I will be glad to tell you more about our organization.
