To promote a thriving intergenerational network of community volunteers and vetted support services that helps aging Northwest neighbors stay living in the comfort of their homes and participate in enriching social, educational and wellness activities.

The local communities of Shoreline, Edmonds, Mountlake Terrace and South Lynnwood are among the multitude that are forming or have formed Aging-In-Place Villages worldwide. Northwest Neighbors Network is a 501(c)(3) non-profit corporation created using the model already in place in Northeast Seattle (N.E.S.T), Greenwood (PNA Village) and Capitol Hill (Wider Horizons) to help older adults (60+) remain in their homes as they age. Village members pay dues, so the model becomes largely self-supporting once fully established. Currently we are especially in need of volunteers in the key areas of fundraising, forming strategic partnerships with businesses, and technical support. We are also looking for more Board members. Once established, we will be seeking volunteers for everything from running errands to handyman tasks to organizing social events, you name it!
