July Special Edition: Community Activation

In Conversation with Director and Singer-Songwriter Dame Drummer

Singer-songwriter, GRAMMY® certified producer, and award-winning filmmaker Dame Drummer spoke to Felton President and CEO Al Gilbert at Felton’s Site F in San Francisco’s Bayview district about community engagement and his documentary ‘Black Daddy: The Movie’ about Black men experiencing fatherhood in America.

"We need to see each other, no matter where we are, because we are all on a journey."

— DAME DRUMMER

In other recent news, Supervisor Shamann Walton and the entire SF Board of Supervisors recognized the dedication of all of Felton's Site F staff and volunteers at San Francisco City Hall this month.

We are excited to say that, as of now, Site F will stay open, which is a big win for residents and staff at the site!

Delegation from Taiwan Visits Felton Institute

Felton Institute had the honor of hosting a delegation from Taiwan this month at our Sutter Street office in San Francisco. We used the opportunity to showcase our senior services and commitment to wellness care for all ages.

Felton President and CEO Al Gilbert and Senior Services Division Director Cathy Spensley kicked it off with a welcome and presentation of gifts, including Felton swag and local treats.

Amy Yu, Director of Workforce and Engagement Services, followed up with a presentation on Felton’s older adult programs that support job training and employment for seniors. The presentation ended with an introduction to our Tech Squad program by Tieu Ly in Mandarin.

Thank you to the delegation from Taiwan for visiting us!

This was Felton’s second time hosting a delegation this summer. In June, we hosted Korean delegates who learned about Felton’s groundbreaking older adult programs that support and empower seniors, followed by a tour of Sagebrook Senior Living in San Francisco.
