"Celebrating Seward and Moose Pass seniors for 40 years." 2 Message from the Executive Director The Seward Senior Center is the cornerstone for the aging community of Seward and contributes healthy, vibrant and stimulating programs to provide support in senior citizens activities of daily living. A wealth of social service assistance is supported daily with trained and knowledgeable staff. The center builds on strong partnerships to provide high quality, culturally-sensitive, accessible services for individuals 60 and older to live healthy, independent, meaningful lives in the place and manner of their choosing. We encourage social, intellectual and physical activities, that have positive results in the quality of life of local area seniors. Center staff, volunteers and Board members are the hearts and hands of senior services; offering compassionate care, nourishment for the body and mind, invigorating a supportive culture to maintain a healthy lifestyle here in Alaska. The Alaska community is very instrumental in the growth of senior support services in Seward; impressing upon the senior community that they are important and valued as a contributing citizen and a necessary asset to any town, large or small. It goes without saying, "It takes a village to care for our elders." Like high school, friendships bloom, students learn, and seniors cultivate their daily presence at the center. Together, no one will be alone, isolated or go unrecognized in their elder years. Together, the center staff embrace daily the celebration of life, a true attribute to healthy living and longevity. Aging is a constant reminder of infinite wisdom, the value of slow movement and a time to share ambitious efforts to protect the dignity of our senior community in Seward. Sincerely, Dawa Dana Paperman Executive Director "Celebrating the Seward senior community for 40 years." 3 Mission Statement To insure honor, dignity, security and independence for the older Alaskan through support service to assist them in maintaining meaningful, quality lives.

Major Financial Partners 7 City of Seward State of Alaska/Older Americans Act Kenai Peninsula Borough Kenai Peninsula United Way (dissolved in 2018) The SSCI Endowment was established in July of 2007, is invested and managed by the Alaska Community Foundation with holdings at a value of $108,000 as of October 2018. At $100,000, the center will draw on the interest to financially assist in program development and operational expenses. The endowment is a fantastic tool for accepting financial gifts from friends of the center. In March 2018, the Seward Senior Center Board of Directors approved to dedicate $15,000 of the endowment to the capital project, the Modernization of Senior Services (M.O.S.S.), with the goal of the completion in 2019. "The Senior Center Endowment cannot be under estimated, since my investment will always be preserved for the benefit of my children when they are lucky enough to grow old. I want them to have the wealth of benefits I boast by attending many programs at the center." • ..,DIY y • 111 11,44, - 4114 al 2018 Board of Directors Front row, L to R: Nicole Lawrence, Carol Souza, and Francis Azzad Smith Back Row: Mark Hensbee, Bill Hearn, Mark Kansteiner and Diane Hunt.
