Be the Reason a Senior Smiles This Holiday Season ✨

As we step into the spirit of Giving Tuesday, we’re calling on our North County community to come together and share a little holiday cheer with the older adults who need it most. Gary and Mary West PACE serves some of our region’s most vulnerable seniors—neighbors striving to remain housed, healthy, nourished, and independent despite limited income and increasing challenges.

Programs like West PACE are invaluable because they ensure seniors have what no one should have to live without:
💙 Reliable access to healthcare
💙 Support to remain safely at home
💙 Social connection that strengthens emotional well-being
💙 Help with essentials like food, hygiene items, and daily necessities

And during the holidays, the need becomes even more profound.

Your gift card donation—no matter the amount—can bring immediate comfort and dignity to a senior. It may help them buy groceries, warm clothing, toiletries, or a small personal item that reminds them they are seen, valued, and supported by their community.

👉 Join us for Giving Tuesday and support the “Be the Reason a Senior Smiles” Gift Card Drive.
You can purchase a gift card directly through our Amazon Wish List here:

Every contribution brings joy, hope, and a sense of belonging to a senior this holiday season.

Thank you for giving from the heart. ❤️

This season, Gary and Mary West PACE is kicking off our annual Holiday Gift Card Drive — and the need is greater than ever.

Because of the ongoing government shutdown, many local seniors are struggling to access the essential benefits they rely on for everyday necessities like groceries, hygiene items, and warm clothing. A simple $10 gift card can make an enormous difference — helping a low-income senior buy a warm meal, a cozy blanket, or a small gift to share with someone they love.

💙 How You Can Help:
✅ Purchase a $10 gift card (Target, Walmart, Amazon, or grocery stores)
✅ Drop it off at Gary and Mary West PACE, 1706 Descanso Ave, San Marcos
✅ Or purchase directly through our Amazon Wish List: https://www.amazon.com/hz/wishlist/ls/3AXSQ64HT22Z5?ref_=wl_share

Together, we can show our seniors that their community cares — even when times are tough.

Please share this post, spread the word, and help us make spirits bright for those who have given so much to all of us.

Today we join the nation in remembering September 11, 2001. We are blessed to serve seniors who dedicated their lives to protecting and uplifting their communities—veterans, first responders, caregivers, and neighbors. On a day when we reflect on unity and sacrifice, we honor their stories and their pride in service.

The best solution for your family that you may not know about…

This , we’re shining a spotlight on PACE (Program of All-Inclusive Care for the Elderly)—an innovative model helping seniors stay healthy, independent, and living where they love: at home.

The New York Times calls PACE a “game-changer” for families navigating the challenges of aging and caregiving. From healthcare to transportation to social connection, PACE wraps care around seniors AND supports their families every step of the way.

Because when care comes with compassion, families thrive. 💙

The Program of All-Inclusive Care for the Elderly, funded by Medicare and Medicaid, has quietly succeeded in enabling some older Americans to age in place.

PACE isn’t just about healthcare—it’s about dignity, independence, and community.
Cuts to Medi-Cal and changes to Medicare put all of this at risk.
Stand with us to protect the promise of PACE for the people who need it most."

Medicaid “reform” proposals that aim to take federal funding away from states or restrict eligibility would all lead to the same result: cutting health and long-term care for seniors.
