health services, emergency assistance, and more. To achieve their second goal, helping vulnerable senior citizens maintain their independence, Serving Seniors offers programs focused on social skills, community volunteering, art, exercise classes and more, allowing them to lead thriving and satisfying lives. Serving Seniors also provides two types of housing support: one for homeless seniors in need of transitional housing and another for those in need of a permanent residence. These permanent residences are designed to be as convenient as possible, allowing residents to easily access transportation, pharmacies and shopping. Serving Seniors does not stop at providing care for seniors, they are actively advocating for change in public policy to help protect other older adults from needing help in the first place. Help make San Diego a better place for our senior citizens to live. Donations to the organization will help them continue their life- changing services and serve many more in the future. www.servingseniors.org DECEMBER 2019 | GBSAN.COM 21
