The Serving Seniors Volunteer Reception is an annual event to honor our volunteers and celebrate their community service efforts. Serving Seniors has welcomed more than 1,700 volunteers since opening in 1970. They assist all programs and operations by serving meals in our congregate dining rooms, hosting holiday and birthday parties, facilitating lifelong learning classes (fitness, bingo, education seminars, arts and crafts, games, etc.), and overall creating a sense of community. 

At the Reception, Serving Seniors provides food and refreshments, music and entertainment, auctions and prize opportunities. We are seeking in kind donations as opportunity winnings and auction items for participating volunteers. The games include, but not limited to: opportunity drawings, door prizes, bingo winners, silent auction, and more.

The Reception takes place in the Serving Seniors Dining Hall in downtown San Diego. We expect between 175-200 volunteers to attend, event is free of charge, and are seeking about 50 in kind donations. Event takes place the evening of May 16, 2019.

If in kind donations are awarded, we will honor and thank your organization at the Volunteer Reception. We will also post gratitude on our social media feeds to thank for your generosity. This includes Facebook, Instagram and Twitter.

Thank you for supporting Serving Seniors!
