Additional avenues of financial support of Fort Bend Seniors include planned giving and memorial gifts. These programs provide donors opportunities to support Fort Bend Seniors through regular planned donations as well as honoring/remembering family, friends and others and specific times.
Fort Bend Seniors’ board of directors, staff, volunteers, and community members also organize two major fundraising events each year – Cinco de Mayo hosted by La Cocina Mexican Restaurant, and More than a Meal Luncheon. These, and other small events, are paramount in meeting the increasing demand for senior services in Fort Bend and Waller counties.
