Spring is Coming

We've had lots of mood swings with the weather this winter! Are you looking forward to Spring and all it has to offer? As you plan your Spring activities, just imagine the warmth you will bring to seniors when you volunteer for them. If volunteering isn't an option for you right now, then consider other ways you can help: sponsor events, donate, attend events, or share our social media. As Joe, a volunteer has said, "I get more than I give. I know these clients need me." Let's see how much warmth we can share this Spring!

Amplify Austin March 2-3!

Amplify Austin is a 24 hour day of online giving. Millions of dollars are raised to help local nonprofits during this campaign.

WHAT WILL YOUR DONATION DO?

Your donation will connect local seniors to their community by providing transportation to area HEBs, Walmarts, Targets, libraries, senior centers, and other locations while connecting them with their peers. Your donation will help seniors connect with volunteers who will drive them to needed medical appointments. Your donation will connect seniors to a Senior Buddy who will help them pick up prescriptions, groceries, and relieve loneliness and isolation.

Bonus: Your donation will be doubled thanks to Eve Cameron and her $10K Double the Connection donation!

Bonus 2: Do you work for Dell? Dell will match all employee Amplify donations!

Connect with us today and DONATE NOW.

Senior Access: Amplify Austin Nonprofit Spotlight

This video was created for us through the generosity of RecognizedGood and I Live Here I Give Here. We appreciate the work that went into creating this. Thank you!

The Things I've Seen podcast hosted by Senior Access.

We had a great podcast episode with Dorothy Miller from the Round Rock Fire Department about emergency preparedness. We could all use some tips and pointers on how to be better prepared in emergency situations. In February, in partnership with Area Agency on Aging and Drive a Senior ATX, we gave over 500 emergency kits to area seniors!

Listen to the podcast of The Things I've Seen here or from any of your favorite podcast services.

Stride for Seniors Fun Walk/Run

Lace-up your walking or running shoes!

We are excited to get together for a 4k Fun Walk/Run to raise crucial funds to keep our local seniors independent. April 30, 8:00 at Gilleland Park Pavillion, Pflugerville.

Imagine what you would do if you couldn’t drive right now. Do you have friends, family, enough money to be able to take care of all of your transportation needs?

Imagine needing to schedule several doctor appointments, but you’re not sure if you have the funds to get a taxi for all of them.

Imagine wanting to see your friends, but there is no way to get together.

Imagine the loneliness and isolation you may feel staying at home by yourself except for the 3 hours a week you get on a van to go to HEB or Walmart.

These are real situations people face until they learn of Senior Access and the services offered.

Help your senior neighbors stay independent! Sign up today.

Sponsorship opportunities are available! We need sponsors to help make this event successful.
