Desk Donation Program February Spotlight: Family Eldercare
Posted by Mandy Spivey on Mar 11th 2019
Sure to never let any vulnerable group slip through the cracks in our society, our February Desk Donation charity is Family Eldercare, a non-profit that's dedicated to ensuring dignity and independence for vulnerable elderly adults and adults with disabilities in Austin.
Family Eldercare - Assisting Elderly Residents in Central Texas
Founded in 1982, the group acts as a compassionate caregiver for older adults with disabilities, enacting programs that prevent abuse, neglect, and financial exploitation through a collection of programs. These include in-home counseling, guardianship, in-home care, and money management programs, which help to ease the emotional burden on residents and their loved ones, and ensure that everyone has the resources they need to be happy and healthy. Their work helps thousands of residents thrive in their later years, with tailored services designed to help people keep their independence.
As our population continues to grow (and age), we're grateful that there are good people to assist every niche of society stay happy and healthy.
Saying Thanks with Standing Desks
As a way to show them thanks, our team donated 10 complete standing desks, including GREENGUARD Gold Certified Laminates, 1" Thick Carbonized Bamboo, and Eco Curve Desks to help them stay healthy as they help elderly residents in our area do the same.
