As the crisp air and vibrant hues of autumn settle over the Pikes Peak region, we're reminded of the changing seasons—and the challenges they bring for many of our senior citizens. Fall is a time of warmth and harvest, but for some in our community, it also signals a time of hunger and hardship. At Silver Key, we are dedicated to ensuring that the seniors in our community are not forgotten and have access to nutritious meals, not only during these challenging months but throughout the year.

We are thrilled to announce a special opportunity to make your contribution go even further. The Abram and Ray Kaplan Foundation has generously offered to match every dollar we raise to fight hunger between July 1 and October 31, 2024, up to $25,000. If we reach this goal, they will double the matching grant amount to an incredible $50,000, making it $75,000 in total!

For many seniors in the Pikes Peak region, fall brings higher heating bills and increased expenses, making it a particularly difficult time. Without adequate support, these vulnerable members of our community risk facing hunger and isolation.

This is where you can make a significant impact. Your generous donation will help us provide essential meals and support services to senior citizens in need. Every dollar you give will be matched by the Kaplan Foundation, doubling your impact and bringing us closer to our goal of $75,000.

With your support, we can:
• Deliver nutritious meals to homebound seniors through our Meals on Wheels program
• Provide access to our food pantry
• Offer transportation services for those needing to reach grocery stores or medical appointments
• Foster a sense of community through our Connections Cafés and Companionship program

Your contribution, no matter the size, can make a world of difference. Together, we can ensure that no senior in the Pikes Peak region has to worry about where their next meal will come from. Please consider making a donation today through a few clicks online or mailing in your support. Thank you for your kindness and support.
