Non-profit seeks funds to buy meals for Danbury, Bethel seniors

At the most recent Age Well Connecticut Community Council meeting, Senior Center Director Susan Tomanio announced that meals they were receiving from the state are being discontinued.  This comes as funding is being prioritized for homebound seniors. 

In response ,the New American Dream Foundation was able to fund one meal a week from the Amber Room for the next 5 weeks for the 45 seniors at the senior center.  The group has now created a special donation option specific to this program via PayPal, with donors selecting "Emergency Meals | Danbury Senior Center" to direct the funding to this purpose.

The New American Dream Foundation has also been contacted by the Bethel Senior Center, which has suffered the same state budget cuts. There is also an option on that page for donors to direct meals to Bethel seniors.
