Our Mission
To honor and support seniors in our community.
Our Vision
To create a community in which seniors live in health, safety and comfort; have opportunities to enrich their lives by pursuing their interests and creativity; and are respected and recognized for their contributions to our community.
Silver Horizons New Mexico, Inc. (SH) is dedicated to enhancing the quality of life of senior citizens in Albuquerque and Bernalillo County.
We strive to fulfill our mission in the following ways:
The Senior Hall of Fame Luncheon - Each May we honor four seniors for their lifetimes of community service. Coming Up May 21, 2009
Emergency Utility Bill Assistance - SH continually works to raise funds to help in-crisis seniors avoid having their gas and electricity turned off.
Home Repairs, Retrofits and Chores - SH purchases building and repair materials and hires temporary workers to assist the City of Albuquerque/Bernalillo County Department of Senior Affairs Home Services Project with minor home repairs, retrofits, and chores for low-income, frail and in-crisis seniors.
Funding - Proceeds from our special events, grants and donation from the community at large are used to fund SH's aid programs. SH receives no governmental funding.
FREE Flu Shots - Eventhough the Expo has been discontinued, Silver Horizons & Presbyterian will be offering FREE FLU SHOTS to seniors at selected locations...
Holiday Adoption Program - In December SH provides about 200 residents of four public-housing communities with holiday gifts and parties. We also provide 90 care packages to the residents of 12 care homes.
MANY THANKS TO THE 2008 PARTICIPANTS!
