Who says eating healthier means giving up your favorite meals? 🍝

Sometimes, all it takes is swapping a few ingredients for healthier alternatives and BAM! You’ve got a meal that’s better for you without sacrificing the flavor you love.

Our Community Outreach Specialist/In-House Chef/Healthy Meal Guru showed us how it’s done with her Low-Carb (All Flavor) Spaghetti! This healthier twist on a classic favorite uses fiber-rich alternatives and is a great option for anyone looking to make more health-conscious choices, including those managing their blood sugar.

And yes, it tastes GOOD. 💙

Want the recipe? Comment “RECIPE” below and we’ll send it your way!

Because healthier eating doesn’t have to mean leaving your favorite foods off the menu.

On National Senior Citizens Day, we want to recognize the incredible older adults who continue to make San Antonio a stronger, kinder, and more connected community.

They are our parents, grandparents, neighbors and friends, veterans, volunteers, caregivers, teachers, mentors, community leaders, and so much more. Their contributions didn’t stop at retirement, and neither did the wisdom, experience, love, and leadership they bring to our community every single day.

At The Gonzaba Foundation, we have the incredible privilege of working alongside older adults throughout San Antonio, and we can tell you one thing for certain: they bring just as much joy into our lives as we hope to bring into theirs. 💙

Whether we’re sharing a meal, playing a game of lotería, distributing fresh produce, learning something new, dancing at a Spurs game, or simply sitting down for a good conversation, we are constantly reminded how special the community we serve truly is.

To every older adult who has spent a lifetime caring for families, building neighborhoods, serving our city, helping others, and paving the way for generations to come: today, we celebrate YOU.

Thank you for allowing us to be a small part of your lives. Serving you is one of our greatest joys.

Happy National Senior Citizens Day from all of us at The Gonzaba Foundation! 💙

How can we possibly fit so many fantastic memories into 10 pictures or less?! 💙🏀

We’re still smiling from our FIRST-EVER Spurs Silver Club Bingo on August 6!

First and foremost, THANK YOU to everyone who joined us and made this event so special. From the bingo wins and big prizes to the laughs, Spurs spirit, and time spent together, YOU are what made this a day to remember.

A huge thank you to the San Antonio Spurs for helping us create such an incredible experience for the older adults in our community!

And, of course, we have to give a special shoutout to The Coyote for getting the crowd PUMPED and bringing that unmistakable Spurs energy to the room! 🏀

We also had one more surprise up our sleeve... Spurs legend Sean Elliott! Having Sean join us as our special guest made an already incredible day that much more memorable for so many of our lifelong Spurs fans. 💙

But our first Spurs Silver Club Bingo is only the beginning!
