Supporting Seniors Program Gets a Boost

Thanks to a generous Community Benefit Award from Emerson Hospital, we’re expanding our Supporting Seniors program, developed to meet the needs of the senior population. Currently, we partner with Acton’s Council on Aging to provide prepared meals to seniors in need. Now we can go the next logical step by delivering groceries using our refrigerated truck. And if this pilot program goes well, we can look into expanding it into more communities.

We are one of 18 non-profit organizations awarded up to $5,000 by Emerson Hospital, after a comprehensive application and review process. Their goal is for these organizations to expand their programs that serve the physical and mental health needs of the community. We were chosen for our program
benefitting older adults. We’re excited to be able to expand this much-needed program, and thankful
to Emerson Hospital for supporting us in our vision to do so.
