Philanthropy
Fund
|
A
small philanthropic fund has been established to give direct
assistance to needy older adults in our community. We
have been able to assist with the cost of Meals on Wheels, Bed
and Bath, emergency medication and transportation, telephone
and gas and electric bills, emergency food packages and other
small, one-time grants for specific needs. Special
consideration is given to maintaining privacy in these
matters. |
