Parker's Place Foundation

This month, Parker's Place Foundation had the privilege of supporting the wonderful seniors at Gallops Senior Center by:

✅ Serving as judges for the Senior Talent Show
🎨 Donating craft supplies to inspire creativity and connection
💙 Providing non-medical wellness supplies
🎁 Donating Bingo prizes to bring smiles, laughter, and friendly competition

These simple moments remind us that promoting healthy aging also means creating opportunities for joy, friendship, creativity, and meaningful engagement.

We're excited to continue building our partnership with Gallops Senior Center as we prepare for our 1st Annual Connected to Thrive Healthy Aging & Community Wellness Expo on September 24, 2026.

Thank you to everyone who helps us fulfill our mission of changing senior culture in our communities.

If you'd like to volunteer, sponsor, or partner with Parker's Place Foundation, we'd love to connect with you!

💜 Rooted in Community. Connected to Thrive.
