How We’re Making an Impact

Here are a few examples of how we’re helping seniors age well thanks to our generous donors.

Moving Beyond Grief

"When I joined the Grief and Loss Support Group five months ago, my grief was overwhelming. My husband has now been gone for almost a year, but after seven months with the group, I feel I am in control and ready for my life."

Holding On to Home

"A senior woman struggling with hoarding and the threat of eviction contacted us for help. Our team of SSG Certified Specialists collaborated across decluttering, legal, property management and other providers to clean and declutter her space, enroll in a support program, and extend her lease to help her remain in place, with a refreshed outlook on life."

Recovering from Credit Challenges

"A senior’s daughter contacted us after his application for a subsidized senior living community was denied due to poor credit. Our team of SSG Certified Specialists contacted the community and created a custom Smart Money Management course with a Certified Financial Planner. After successfully completing the course and providing a letter of verification from FSS, the community approved his application and welcomed him to his new home."
