Stride for Seniors Fun Walk/Run
Lace-up your 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 am at Gilleland Park Pavillion in Pflugerville.

You are needed to make this event a success. Do you know the impact you can make when we join together for a great cause such as this? Your participation lifts the burdens of loneliness and isolation many seniors feel. Invite your friends to join you. You can make a difference.

Funds raised will help the Van Program. Vans are out in the community 5 days a week getting seniors to the grocery stores and helping them stay social.

into Friendship

“Our sense of humor is very similar and we love pizza”, says Alex Tronche, who has been a volunteer for Senior Access since December of 2020 and refers to the relationship he has developed with Joyce, one of Senior Access’s clients. 

Alex was between jobs and had some free time in between which let him do some volunteer work. He found Senior Access and signed up for the “Senior Buddy” program. He currently has two senior buddies, Steve and Joyce. 

“Alex is just a gentleman and so charming,” says Joyce. Joyce had an accident a few years ago that resulted in her not being able to drive. “I had to learn patience and wait on people”, adds Joyce. “I didn’t realize that when you get to my age you need help”. 

Senior Access started the Senior Buddy program in the middle of the pandemic to help seniors that were even more isolated due to covid and could not get to the grocery stores, pick up prescriptions or simply talk to someone. 

“What you give back from volunteering is way more than what you put in,” says Alex.
