Many individuals in our community are struggling right now.  Loneliness. Needing rides to medical appointments. Memory issues. Help with technology and all of the changes that are happening in that world.  Those are just a few of the ways that an organization is stepping up to help individuals in our community that are 55 years and older.

Elder Network is Here to Help Support Caregivers and Seniors in Our Community

At Elder Network, they are dedicated to helping seniors and their caregivers in the Olmsted, Wabasha, and Winona counties maintain their overall health, well-being, and independence—all within a safe and supportive environment.

Many volunteers and staff are working hard behind the scenes every day to help support those in our area that are 55 and over.  While you may not have an hour every week to volunteer, you can join in for one night of support at the 11th Annual Elder Network Fundraiser Gala.
