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
