My Nonprofit Reviews

I work with Jeannette Roe (director) and the Twin Falls Senior Center in the production of their monthly newsletter. I have done this for several years, and also work with a number of other senior centers across the country from Alaska to Connecticut. I have had a "front row seat' for all these years to watch all that goes on at this senior center. There is always a beehive of activities going on for the seniors each and every day. It is not uncommon to see well over 200 seniors participating each day in the various activities and programs that are offered there. Senior centers operate on shoestring budgets and those that work there end up doing much, much more than they are paid to do. It is truly an act of service. The seniors in Twin Falls count on the senior center for social interaction, keeping their minds active, and helping them not feel lonely and forgotten. Jeannette and her staff work from early morning until late in the evening most days to create a warm, inviting environment that keeps the Twin Falls senior population young and living vibrant, productive lives. The center is impeccably clean and the meals delicious and carefully planned to provide proper nourishment for the seniors. This is truly a "model" for what senior centers should be across the nation.
