ACC Senior Services has been awarded a grant of $7500 by the Sacramento Region Disaster Relief Fund of the Sacramento Region Community Foundation.
According to Linda Beech Cutler, CEO of the foundation, the grant will be used for partial funding of a part-time production assistant, plus additional camera, mixer, and microphone equipment for the Lifelong Learning and Wellness Program (LLWP) at ACC.
Since the beginning of the pandemic, ACC’s Lifelong Learning and Wellness Program has livestreamed over 700 health and fitness classes, educational workshops and fun special events to older adults throughout Sacramento and beyond free of charge. Over the last year, LLWP received 2,000 registrations and thousands of unique viewers on YouTube and Facebook accessing archived classes, workshops, special presentations, and concerts. The grant from the Sacramento Region Community Foundation will give us additional resources to increase the amount and variety of ACC’s online programming helping older adults to connect, be engaged, and live healthier lives.
The Sacramento Region Community Foundation is an advocate for quality of life, dedicated to connecting people who care with charitable causes. An effective steward of the region’s charitable assets since 1983, its mission is to transform our community through focused leadership and advocacy that inspire partnerships and expand giving.
