Tis the Season for sharing comfort and joy. Our new corporate supporter, Metis Global Partners, spent the morning and lunchtime with our seniors by sponsoring Bingo, serving meals, and brightening smiles with their laughter and spirits. We are incredibly thankful for their time, talent, and treasures and we can’t wait to welcome them back to Serving Seniors soon.

We are incredibly grateful to our community for their overwhelming support on GivingTuesday – both online and in-person. YOU raised $80,515 to provide more meals and critical services for seniors!

Too many seniors are forced to make the heart-wrenching decision between paying for rent and putting food on the table. Together, we can change that. Let’s come together for seniors like Anthony, whose life was transformed by his first miracle meal. https://lnkd.in/ghzT_Ha8 #givingtuesday #giveback #sandiegoseniors #sandiegononprofit https://lnkd.in/eHK__cyn
