Dear Friends and Neighbors,
I wanted to take a moment to thank you for standing by our seniors, especially during challenging times.
For 49 years, the Hoodland Senior Center has been a place where older adults in our community can find connection, care, and resources they depend on. Things like home-delivered meals, exercise classes, wellness checks, transportation to medical appointments, a place to gather and socialize, and simply a friendly face to talk to. It’s a trusted part of life for many folks in our community.
Unfortunately, due to ongoing federal funding cuts and tightening budgets, we’re seeing a real strain on the programs we’re able to offer. Some of the services our seniors rely on are at risk and that’s something we never want to see happen.
What makes this mountain community so special is how we show up for one another. We’ve seen it time and time again. Neighbors helping neighbors, especially when it comes to our seniors. Your support doesn’t just keep the lights on or cover the cost of a meal. It tells our older residents that they’re still seen, still valued, and still deeply cared for.
We have compassionate and dedicated volunteers, hardworking staff, and a whole lot of heart, but we can’t do it alone. If you’re able to give, know that your contribution goes directly toward serving seniors right here in our mountain community. Every bit helps, and every donation stays local and supports our growing population of seniors.
If you'd like to contribute, you can donate online at HoodlandSeniorCenter.org, mail a check to the address below, visit our center in person, or call us at 503-622-3331 to donate over the phone. If you have any questions or would like to learn more about what we do here, we would love to talk with you and share details on our mission and how your support matters.
Thank you so much for being a part of this beautiful community and for supporting our seniors in whatever way you can.
