Caring and Sharing

11-25-2008

During this season of caring and sharing, we'd like to offer our heartfelt appreciation for your contributions and interest. Because of you, our innovative services continue to grow and be available for those who need them.

Thanks to your support, Elders in Action's personal advocates have been able to assist 2,045 people this year. Some of you might have experienced the peace of mind attained through their guidance in making life-changing differences, or know someone who has.

Our Personal Advocate Program is the only one of its kind in Oregon! Personal advocates helped recoup $484,672 for victims of fraud, wrongful billing and other issues. Our Speakers Bureau participated in 65 community and media events educating 22,161 people on various topics of concern to elders and other citizens. We believe that assistance and education is the key to resolution and prevention.

We celebrate you, our generous volunteers and donors, friends and supporters. As generations of people grow older, the challenge for Elders in Action escalates. With your financial assistance and energetic efforts, we will be able to continue providing our unique and urgently needed services.

Please consider donating this year at whatever level you are able so we may continue to serve and honor our valued elders. Donate here

Best wishes for a warm and wonderful holiday!
