To help keep seniors from feeling lonely and isolated, Avenidas employees, from the CEO to the accounting department to our front desk staff, have been making check-in phone calls and birthday calls during this period of sheltering in place. Members have been letting us know how much they appreciate these calls.
I just wanted to thank the person who called with a birthday wish. I am a long-time member, and even though it was a pretty “odd” birthday for me this year (I had to make my own birthday dinner and do the clean up as my partner has Parkinson’s), I am grateful that we are mostly healthy so far, so it was especially nice to get the phone message.
What a lovely thing to do and my thanks and appreciation to all the staff at Avenidas. Thanks for all the excellent work you do and I look forward to being back at the new facility again!”
If you, or a senior you know, wants to receive these kinds of calls from us, let us know by sending an email to: info@avenidas.org, or calling (650) 289-5400.
