Adopt A Senior
The Adopt-A-Senior Club strives to prevent senior citizens from falling victim to financial and physical abuse.
Currently more than 1.5 million impaired older people use some type of community service (adult day care, meals on wheels, assistance with financial matters). That number is expected to grow to 2.4 million seniors by the year 2020.
GuardiaCare is at the forefront in the battle against senior abuse. Donations to the Adopt-A-Senior Club allow seniors to put their lives back together by assuring seniors ...
are free from financial and physical abuse
have a safe place to go each day
get nutritional meals and health monitoring
have an active life surrounded by people who care about them.
