MOBILITY AIDS PROGRAM

Do you have a wheelchair, transport chair, rollator with a seat or front wheel aluminum walker collecting dust in your house or carport? If you do, consider donating it to the Golden Age Foundation’s (GAF) Mobility Aids Program.

It’s easy to donate and/or borrow items from the Mobility Aids Program. One of the volunteers will be happy to assist you at the office, which is located in Clubhouse 6 in the table tennis area on the first floor.

The Mobility Aids Program loans equipment for six months to Leisure World residents. This includes wheelchairs, transport chairs, rollators and walkers. The service is free of charge, and the program is run entirely by GAF volunteers.

The office is open Monday-Friday from 9-11 a.m., excluding national holidays. People can also drop off donations any time by leaving them outside the Mobility Aids office in the designated drop off area. Do not drop off items at the Healthcare Center or the Optum building.

The GAF does not accept bath aids of any kind or any other assistive devices. Due to a shortage of volunteers, the GAF is currently unable to pick up items at residents’ homes.

For more information, call (562) 431-9589 or visit www. GoldenAgeFdn.org.

Golden Age Foundation volunteers can help LWers find the perfect mobility aid to fit their needs.
