Foundation for Senior Services

Our Mission We are a 501(c)3 public charity whose mission is to provide seniors and their families with education, options and resources so they can choose quality care and support that will help preserve their independence. We have first-hand knowledge of the complex and confusing array of issues seniors must navigate to age well, and we’re committed to providing this support without consideration of social, cultural or economic differences. The Need Has Never Been Greater In 2020, the US had 56 million people over the age of 65. That number is expected to grow to 70 million by 2030. Similarly, in 2015, California had 7 million people over the age of 65 and that number is expected to grow to 12 million by 2030. This tremendous growth requires more senior services, facilities and qualified health care providers, as well as new solutions to fighting disease, isolation, and poverty among seniors who deserve the right to age with dignity. As a society, we simply aren’t prepared for the “silver tsunami.” Making an Impact Our programs and services are delivered through our Senior Specialists Group (SSG) chapters – a team of 300+ Certified Specialists throughout Southern and Central California who can help seniors navigate the wide range of challenges they may face, including in-home care, medical, legal, emotional, financial and placement services, home repairs, meals, transportation, medical supplies and equipment, and more. Let’s Connect! We help build and connect a community supporting seniors in preserving their independence. Whether you’re a senior, a friend or family member, or a caregiver, we’re here to help. We’re also always looking for donors, volunteers and community partners to help expand our impact.
