Program:

This week’s speakers were Charles Kopp, President and Dal Giuliani, Executive Director of the Amherst Senior Citizens Foundation. (ASCF). The main goal of the ASCF is to do development efforts / fund raising in support of activities that support and supplement the Amherst Senior Center. They do not duplicate any services that are already provided. Totally run by volunteers except the Executive Director position they generated $50 k last year. The money was used for augmenting the senior center transportation to allow for shopping trips for home bound seniors Moneys were also provided to meals on wheels. Charles and Dal are raising awareness for ASCF through speaking engagements and also working on getting a NY State grant that will improve Axelrod,Bthe exercise facilities within the Amherst Senior Center. Charles shared some interesting stats and facts about the percent of aging population in Amherst and life expectancy through the 20th and 21st century.
