FiftyForward is honored to celebrate a remarkable milestone this year as we mark 30 years of partnership between FiftyForward Madison Station and The Memorial Foundation!

Since opening our doors in 1996, thanks to an initial grant from The Memorial Foundation, Madison Station has been a vibrant hub for adults 50+ in Madison, East Nashville, Inglewood, Old Hickory, and surrounding communities.

Madison Station was created in response to a real community need, and today, more than 150 members gather daily for lifelong learning, wellness, and connection.

“FiftyForward Madison Station is a jewel in Madison that has engaged older adults and the broader community for the past 30 years. We’re proud to have helped establish this Lifelong Learning Center in 1996, and we continue to partner with FiftyForward to support this important work," said Scott S. Perry, President of The Memorial Foundation.

We are deeply grateful for The Memorial Foundation’s ongoing support, which has helped FiftyForward Madison Station enrich the lives of older adults for three decades.

Here’s to 30 years of impact, community, and friendship—and many more to come!
