This month Senior Connect West hosted the West End Garden Club Luncheon. Thirty-four people received information about the foundation’s programs and services.
We shared our vision of partnering with Northland Foundation’s Rural Aging Initiative through a grant. This year we look forward to transitioning our successful senior program to Cook County’s first rural nationally accredited senior center. This two-year project and other creative programs are in the works.
