The Golden Age Foundation has received another generous donation of disposable face masks from Global Specialty Services (GSS), a rapid-response contractor located in Dallas, Texas that specializes in environmental response and disaster recovery.

GAF continues to work with the Golden Rain Foundation to distribute masks to GRF employees and contractors as well as shareholders who were unable to obtain a mask.

One of the important areas GAF focused on while distributing the 24,000 disposable mask donation was to provide for those who aren’t able get around by themselves.

Meals On Wheels Long Beach has a total of 160 daily recipients from Leisure World. Each recieved two packets of disposable face masks with his or her recent meal deliveries.

MOWLB was founded in 1971 to support the independence and well-being of homebound seniors, veterans and the disabled.

This program is designed specifically to meet the nutritional and social needs of seniors.

Meals On Wheels Orange County has 60 recipients in Leisure World that will also receive masks with their daily meals.

The Y’s Service Club volunteers, who often visit shareholders’ houses to do small jobs, also received a mask donation.

The GAF is grateful it can help to ensure the safety of the community by providing masks to employees and residents.

The GAF extends its deep gratitude to Larry Dunn, CEO of GSS, who generously donated the masks, and to Michael Rettig, who facilitated the donation.
