Henderson Settlement Senior Center

About Henderson Settlement Senior Center

Our senior center is open three days a week. Our vans pick up the seniors promptly and have them here for breakfast and lunch. While here they can participate in a variety of activities such as crafts, devotions, and fellowship with each other. We have 22 seniors enrolled for in-center activities. We will average 16 on a good day. There are 96 seniors registered to receive commodities which have been a welcomed supplement to their fixed income. There are two days each month that staff take the seniors to town for groceries, shopping, and to pick up medication. Once each month our seniors have the opportunity to participate in a fun outing such as bowling, special shopping, or a once a year overnight outing. The outings give them a chance to get out and have some fun that they may not get otherwise. One of the seniors favorite indoor activities is Bingo, and the prizes they find to go to the winners. The seniors work hard sewing quilts and doing crafts to sell in order to help fund these outings. They can always use ideas and donations for their projects and their trips.
