Peninsula Volunteers, Inc. PVI has been enabling seniors to age in place since 1947. Peninsula Volunteers Inc. LITTLE HOUSE, THE ROSELYN G.

Peninsula Volunteers, Inc., has led the nation in developing programs, properties and services to support the welfare of the senior members of our community for 67 years. Our mission:
As life expectancy lengthens, communities need to embrace both opportunities and challenges to help aging adults maintain their dignity, independence and sense of usefulness. (PVI) provides innovative services and housing to support aging adults in the mid-Peninsula and Silicon Valley. Our impact:

MEALS ON WHEELS
Delivers over 2500 hot, nutritious meals each week to homebound older adults in San Mateo County who are unable to shop and cook for themselves. Many are frail, recovering from hospitalization, or are disabled. More than half of our clients have incomes below federal poverty levels. MORRIS ACTIVITY CENTER
Provides a breadth of services centered on health, wellness, and social interaction to over 3,500 people annually. There are fitness classes to accommodate all levels, a variety of arts and education programs and Little House Café serving nutritious, affordable meals. Little House also offers information, referrals and services to address the range of needs facing aging adults. ROSENER HOUSE, ADULT DAY SERVICES CENTER
Serves adults with Alzheimer's, dementia, or other chronic age-related conditions. Rosener House provides therapeutic art sessions, health services, music, speech, occupational and physical therapy - delivered in a caring and emotionally supportive environment; helping seniors avoid premature institutional placement. Rosener House provides service to over 150 participants, and provides respite for 400+ family caregivers annually. SENIOR HOUSING
Peninsula Volunteers Inc. was the first volunteer organization in the United States to build affordable senior housing. Our two apartment buildings house low and moderate income seniors, and account for over 82% of the affordable housing for seniors in Menlo Park

What a Halloween! 🎃

Last week, the Peninsula Volunteers community came together for an afternoon full of music, creativity, and costumes. Bob Ferrington and Denny Berthiaume brought the house down with a Halloween jazz performance; everyone got creative carving and bedazzling pumpkins, and the costumes had us smiling all day.

A heartfelt thank you to everyone who joined us, carved, sparkled, dressed up, and made the day so special.

When Velia moved to Menlo Park after losing her husband, she was overwhelmed with grief. Her son told her about Little House, and today she walks there three times a week for friendship, exercise, and a place where she belongs. 💛

“They know my name. I walk in here, and I feel welcome.”

Rising food costs and stalled federal funding are leaving more local seniors hungry and alone. This season, help us bring meals, care, connection, and support to older adults in our community.

Who says salads are just for summer? 🍂 This Fall Rainbow Salad is packed with the colors of the season: crisp apples, leafy greens, and a sprinkle of pomegranate seeds, all tossed in a cozy maple vinaigrette. It’s hearty enough for dinner and pretty enough for your holiday table.

For many older adults in our community, the holidays can be a lonely time. This season, you can help change that. 🎄

Through the PVI Holiday Meal Drive, your gift brings more than a nourishing meal prepared fresh in our Menlo Park kitchen. It brings connection, holiday cheer, and the comfort of knowing someone cares.

Together, we’re working toward a goal of $10,000 to support serving 10,000 holiday meals to seniors in our community.

Give today at 1pvi.org/donate/ 💚
