By drawing upon the resources of the MVES Elder Independence Fund, MVES can provide a pair of eyeglasses, a hearing aide, a lift-equipped chair, or assistance with paying for moving services to a local elder who resides in the communities of Everett, Malden, Medford, Melrose, North Reading, Reading, Stoneham, and Wakefield.
Each year, MVES awards grants ranging from $99 to $1,500 to pay for an urgently needed item or service to help low-income elders remain independent. In total, MVES awards over $20,000 to seniors annually through this community-funded resource. Consequently, each year MVES must replenish this important cash resource so that we can sustain and increase the capacity of the MVES Elder Independence Fund.
Please donate to the MVES Elder Independence Fund today and help us continue to say “yes” to local elders in need.
Donate online or fill out a donation form and mail the form and your donation to Mystic Valley Elder Services, 300 Commercial St., #19, Malden, MA 02148.
