Senior Concerns 22nd annual fundraising extravaganza, “The Ultimate
Dining Experience,” netted a record $128,000 at the Hyatt Westlake Plaza
on Aug. 5, helping to continue provision of expanded services to the area’s
growing population of frail elderly and special-need seniors and their
family caregivers.
“With more than 400 in attendance and great support from UDE
sponsors, we exceeded last year’s net of $122,000,” said Jeannine Tieri and
Sue Lambert, event co-chairs and members of Senior Concerns Board of
Directors. “This is outstanding testimony from generous and caring citizens,
businesses and civic organizations acknowledging the increasing need to
provide unique services for a needy segment of our aging population.”
All proceeds from the Ultimate Dining Experience will benefit the full range of Senior Concerns community-based services, including Meals on Wheels, Adult Day Center, Family Support Services, Senior Advocates information and counseling service, Ventura County’s Alzheimer’s Day Care Resource Center and a variety of informational seminars throughout the year.
