OUR STORY
​
Our founders envisioned a supportive environment for seniors, regardless of gender, social or economic status, race, or religion, emphasizing non-profit operation, political neutrality, and enduring presence. This marked the genesis of a legacy focused on improving seniors' quality of life through a wide range of services and activities, laying the foundation for decades of community service and support.
