Senior Assistance Fund

What We Do

This fund will be available to those 60+ in Weld County who are below poverty level but would like to
participant at the Greeley Active Adult Center (AAC). 60+ seniors want to purchase a membership and have
the ability to attend fee-based programs in existence at the AAC. The Senior Assistance Fund would allow
interested seniors to apply for the scholarship therefore being able to stay active in the community by
participating in programs at the AAC. Available programs at AAC would include a broad base of appealing
activities especially those relevant to everyday lives (nutritional meals, educational classes, sports, travel,
exercise, general wellness services, hobbies, social opportunities and lifestyle physical activity). The annual
membership and scholarship monies would help to ensure that participants are active in programs long
enough to create lifestyle changes in physical fitness /functional parameters (weight, strength, flexibility)
and overall well-being. Surveys, attendance and registrations will be used to evaluate the outcomes and
assess the impact of the Senior Assistance Fund. This fund will ideally encourage program participation,
reduce social isolation, encourage volunteering and create a sense of belonging with a significant group or
activity. Collaboration with other agencies such as Area Agency on Aging for exercise and classes,
Alzheimer/ Parkinson’s Associations for educational/ support and Senior Resources to help get participants
to the AAC is a critical piece for success.

87% of older Americans indicate they want to age in place; our community will need to adopt strategies to
enable this choice. Colorado’s aging population will require communities to adapt to accommodate to
these changes. Many seniors in our community believe they cannot afford to attend the AAC or its
programs. With this Senior Assistance fund it would provide a scholarship to seniors to make it possible to
attend activities at the AAC.

How We Impact

Mr. Robert was so excited to know that he was able to now attend chess class all year long. He had enough scholarship money for the monthly program for an entire year. He said he would hardly believe he would be able to do what he loves all year.
