Giving Tuesday is a global day of giving. More than $300,000,000 is raised annually across 150 countries. This year, Giving Tuesday is on November 27, 2018. Go to accsv.org/donate to donate to ACC Senior Services. Your donation will be used to fund three very specific needs:
1. ACC Rides. A $10 contribution will pay for a whole week of rides for one senior traveling to a Meals on Wheels meal site. A $50 contribution will pay for the transportation of five seniors for a whole week. ACC Rides provides more than 4,000 rides a month across 10 zip codes in Sacramento and Elk Grove to hot lunches, doctors appointments and to meet many other seniors’ needs.
2. ACC classes. A $150 donation will fund the operating expenses of an ACC class for older adults in our community. We’ve touched thousands of lives through our Lifelong Learning and Wellness Program. Our popular classes include yoga, line dancing, tai chi, computers, estate planning and Medicare workshops, utilities assistance and other Lifelong Learning and Wellness classes.
3. ACC received over $6,000 in donations to buy AEDs (portable defibrillators) and to train staff at all our facilities. This fund was started by an ACC donor whose life was saved by an AED after he went into cardiac arrest. A gift of any amount will help meet the additional $3,000 to reach the total cost of the AED equipment and training investments in the protection of all residents, guests, staff and volunteers at ACC Senior Services.
