GAF seeks sponsors for centenarian event
Centenarians’ life’s journeys and presence in the community are some of the many things that make Leisure World a great place to live.
The Golden Age Foundation (GAF) would like to acknowledge them by visiting and providing a special lunch for them and a friend or family member, and a filled gift bag, on Tuesday, April 23, between 11 a.m.-12:30 p.m.
The gift bag will include a centenarian certificate issued by the City of Seal Beach, a bouquet of flowers, and a $25 gift card from different sponsors.
The special lunch for two will be delivered by the Golden Age Foundation volunteers, who will visit the centenarian with gifts.
Additionally, the GAF has been working with families of centenarians to gather stories that cover more than 100 years of witnessed unimaginable history and unique family, and share the remarkable life stories with neighbors and friends in Leisure World. This event was created to celebrate the resilience, happiness, and healthy living centenarians exemplify.
Those who would like to become a sponsor for the centenarian event should contact GAF president Anna Derby, at 562-301-5339 by March 31.
Those who are or know anyone turning 99.5 years old or older this year can contact Derby to get on the list of the centenarian celebration in 2024.
