GIVE TODAY

Reflecting on an Incredible 2024 and Welcoming a Bright New Year Ahead

As we close out this year, we want to extend our heartfelt gratitude to each and every one of you—our supporters, partners, volunteers, and families—for making 2024 truly unforgettable. Your unwavering support and generosity have empowered us to achieve so much together.


This year, we were honored to partner with incredible organizations that share our vision for supporting seniors and their families. These partnerships have allowed us to provide exceptional programming that has enriched the lives of our guests and their loved ones. From innovative arts and music programs to fitness and storytelling sessions, every initiative was made possible through the support of our amazing community.

One of our proudest accomplishments this year was hosting our First Annual Senior Expo, which brought together over 200 attendees for a day filled with learning, connection, and inspiration. In addition to this milestone event, our ongoing monthly sessions provided consistent opportunities for our seniors to thrive and engage.


Above all, we feel deeply privileged to have earned the trust of our community by caring for and supporting your loved ones. Seeing the joy and connection fostered here at Still Waters reaffirms our mission to serve with compassion and purpose.

As we look ahead to the new year, we are filled with excitement for the possibilities that lie before us. We are committed to continuing our work of creating meaningful experiences and opportunities for our seniors and their families.


From all of us at Still Waters, we wish you a joyful holiday season and a Happy New Year filled with health, happiness, and cherished memories. Thank you for being an essential part of our journey—here’s to an even brighter 2025!

Spreading Cheer and Making a Difference: Thank You, Gift Wrapping Volunteers!

This holiday season, we were overwhelmed with gratitude for the incredible support of our gift-wrapping volunteers who made such a meaningful impact in our community. Together, we raised over $1,000 to support our programs and services, all while spreading joy and holiday cheer to local families.


A special shout-out goes to Community Health Network for their generous partnership and for providing their amazing Serve360 volunteers, whose enthusiasm and dedication made this event a resounding success. Their energy and commitment brought smiles to everyone’s faces and reminded us of the power of coming together to serve a common cause.


To all our volunteers and supporters, thank you for sharing your time, talents, and holiday spirit with us. Your efforts help us continue providing vital programs and services for the seniors and families we serve.


We can’t wait to carry this momentum into the new year, and we look forward to creating even more opportunities to give back and strengthen our community.

Gratitude for the Downtown Optimist Club: Supporting Intergenerational Connections

We want to extend a heartfelt thank-you to the Downtown Optimist Club for their unwavering support of our intergenerational programming. Your dedication to fostering meaningful connections between generations has been invaluable to our mission.


Thanks to your generosity, our seniors and youth continue to thrive through weekly engagements that bring joy, learning, and shared experiences. These moments not only enrich the lives of those involved but also build bridges of understanding and connection across generations.


We deeply appreciate your commitment to helping us create a community where people of all ages can come together to learn from and inspire one another. It’s partnerships like this that allow us to continue making a lasting impact.


Thank you, Downtown Optimist Club, for believing in our work and helping us grow stronger together!

Exciting News: The Indoor Mobility Park is Officially Open!

We are beyond excited to announce the grand opening of our Indoor Mobility Park! This innovative space is already making a huge difference for our guests and their families, providing a safe and engaging environment to promote movement, activity, and connection.


This dream would not have been possible without the incredible generosity of OrthoIndy, whose grant helped bring this vision to life. A special thank-you also goes out to Cit-E-Volve, LLC and Marcos Galan for their exceptional work on the build, as well as Amanda Dinges with The Property District, whose creative design brought the space to life. Lastly, we extend our deepest gratitude to Merry Crews, whose countless volunteer hours added the magical finishing touches to this beautiful area.


Our guests and their families are already enjoying this new addition, and we can’t wait to share it with the broader community during our Open House this spring. Stay tuned for details on this special event—we’d love for you to come and experience this space firsthand.


Thank you to everyone who contributed to making this dream a reality. Together, we’re continuing to create opportunities that inspire and uplift!
