No older adult should have to choose between buying medicine or buying food. Unfortunately, it's the tough reality for many. ElderSource is working to change this through our Suppers for Seniors campaign! Join us next week at these two fundraisers to help older adults get moved off waitlists and start receiving home-delivered meals. If you can't join us, donations are always accepted at https://lnkd.in/efaTeGVp #BurgerFi #Panera #SuppersForSeniors
