Help Us Stay Connected to Older Adults
We need volunteer to distribute meals and help Sixty and Better maintain a vital lifeline to older adults who would normally attend their neighborhood Activity Center.
Sixty and Better has provided a place for older adults to have fun, be well, and stay connected since 1967. That has been challenged with the Coronavirus Pandemic, as all older adults are asked to stay home and limit their exposure to others.
