The Legacy Circle is a special group of donors who have made a legacy gift, naming Serving Seniors as a beneficiary in their estate plans. These donors are committed to ensuring that seniors living in poverty whom we serve have access to nutrition, housing, and a comprehensive array of supportive services so they can live healthy and fulfilling lives. We are deeply honored and grateful that they have selected Serving Seniors as a member of “their family” in their estate plan.

Member Highlight

We welcome Todd and Debb Barrett Legacy Circle members who share their personal reasons for supporting Serving Seniors.

Serving Seniors has profoundly transformed the lives of countless older adults in the San Diego community. Through comprehensive programs, they address food insecurity, provide affordable housing, and deliver essential health services—all while fostering meaningful social connections that empower seniors to age with dignity. I have witnessed firsthand how their unwavering commitment reduces isolation and enhances the overall well-being of older adults, making Serving Seniors an invaluable resource that strengthens the San Diego community.

As a member of the Board of Directors, I have observed the management team's unwavering dedication, expertise, and commitment to operational excellence. Their efforts significantly contribute to the organization's impactful work with marginalized seniors. Every donation, grant, and resource is strategically employed to further Serving Seniors' mission of helping older adults living in poverty lead healthy and fulfilling lives.

Inspired by their tireless advocacy, my husband and I felt compelled to contribute to Serving Seniors in a more meaningful way. By making a planned gift from our estate, we aim to ensure this essential organization continues to expand its reach, offering support and dignity to those who deserve it most. This is our way of making a lasting difference in the lives of seniors in San Diego.

If you have included Serving Seniors in your estate plan or if you are considering it, please let us know. We can help you identify charitable gift strategies that will help protect your assets and provide peace of mind for you and your family. Your inquiry will be treated in confidence and Serving Seniors respects all requests for anonymity.
