Tis the season for Workplace giving and I would love the opportunity to come to your workplace and tell you about Friend to Friend America and how your donation can make a difference in the quality of life for a senior in your community.

Friend to Friend America Awarded CMP Grant!

We are excited to announce that we received a grant from the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services and the state of Washington that will staff one full time person to serve in 3 local nursing homes as a video call liaison to ensure residents can connect with friends and family far and wide. The lucky homes that get to participate in this program for year one are:

  • Foss Homes in Seattle
  • Judson Park in Des Moines
  • Burien Nursing and Rehabilitation in Burien

Annual Sunset Social

Thank You Friends!

Our Second Annual Friend to Friend America Sunset Social at the Columbia Tower Club was a huge success.  We raised $20,000 to help combat Senior Isolation and Loneliness!

The evening featured Wine Tasting, Appetizers, a Silent & Live Auctions, and the lovely Seattle Skyline as seen from the 76th floor of the tallest building in Seattle.

A big Thank You to everyone who attended, those who donated items for the auction, the Columbia Tower Club, and all of our valued volunteers who contributed in making this a terrific evening!

Stay tuned for our 2024 event!
