Testimonials
At age 91, I feel that I have been given dignity and a sense that someone cares due to [Senior Reach's] efforts and generosity.
Frederika W.
Senior Reach Client
In [LOP], I have learned that you have to try, and the teachers have been a key part in increasing my confidence. They create spaces free of judgment and full of encouragement.

Koo & Patricia Yuen
Reach Supporters
The clinic staff called me over and over again to get tested for colon cancer. I followed their recommendations and thanks to all the staff, the doctor and the manager, I was saved from advanced cancer. They discovered my cancer early and thanks to them I no longer have cancer.
