The Vegas Voice 12-20

Always Grateful
By: Carol Chapman
It’s hard to believe we’ve arrived at the
holiday season. None of us knows how this
year will affect
our family traditions, but there’s one
thing you can count on. Whether
we’re celebrating alone or with a
small group, we’ll try to make it as festive as possible.
What doesn’t change is the reason for the season. It’s still a time to
think about the many things for which we are grateful. The Foundation,
despite the many challenges of 2020, has much to be thankful for.
We have a dedicated and energetic group of volunteers who work
tirelessly to deliver durable medical equipment, maintain our HowRU
program, answer phones and greet clients, process paperwork, keep the
books, and spread the word about the services we provide. For them, we
are truly grateful.
Donations keep this organization running and allow us to serve the
community. We could not do it without the generosity of our individual
donors, many of whom have been clients as well.
We send our gratitude to the senior healthcare professionals who
tell their patients about our services, sharing our mission of keeping
seniors comfortably in their own homes for as long as possible.
Finally, our sponsors provide The Foundation with sustainability. We
send our deepest thanks to the Gene Haas Foundation and First Service
Residential for their support.
We wish all of you a holiday season filled with love and hope.
Volunteering for a Great
Cause
By: Liz Palmer / NSG
Have you ever
wanted to
help serve your
community
with only a few hours a month spent
in the company of like-minded people
who are working toward improving the
health and wellness of seniors? Consider applying for a position on our
Board of Directors!
The Nevada Senior Games will
hold its (virtual) annual meeting on
January 16, and if you’re interested
in joining our group and becoming
an advocate for seniors, send me
a paragraph about yourself, your
background, and why you would
like to be a member of our Board.
We are an engaged friendly group
who likes to have fun while helping
other seniors improve their health
and fitness, and we’d love to hear
from you! We need to know of your
interest by January 2, 2021. My email
address is nevadaseniorgames@
outlook.com.
*Another exciting development –
we will launch a fundraiser soliciting donations to the NSG. 100% of
your tax deductible donation goes to support of the Games.
Plus, with a minimum $10 donation, you will receive (via email) a
copy of my historical romance novel “The Lord Of Her Heart,” which
is getting some pretty darn good reviews – thanks friends and family!
The Lord of Her Heart is a historical romance novel and I reiterate
that 100% of all proceeds will benefit The Nevada Senior Games, a
501(c)3 non-profit organization that promotes senior health and
wellness through annual team and individual sport competitions in
the Las Vegas area.
It will be available starting December 7 th . You can donate via PayPal
(link on our website) or send in a check (details on the website). Need I
say it would make a great Christmas gift for a fan of historical romance?
Check out our website www.nevadaseniorgames.com beginning
December 7 th for more details. We thank you for your support!
*Finally, NSG wishes to publicly thank a very generous donor
who wishes to remain anonymous. This wonderful person helped
our organization with a fantastic financial gift which will help our
operations continue.
