Briefly:
Who We Are
The Astoria Senior Center (ASC) is a small nonprofit gem in downtown Astoria, Oregon. The facility is meant to be an activities center, but our services extend past recreation. We have a dedicated staff of volunteers and an Executive Director who make the best of their facilities, using it to make a difference in people's lives. For example, we offer lifetime learning, important social interaction, and a comfortable, quiet facility. We partner with the nonprofit Northwest Senior Disability Services to provide delicious lunches for delivery. Thanks to our commitment, the seniors in the area have a clean and friendly environment in which to spend their time, enjoy scrumptious meal deliveries, and build relationships with one another.
Our Board is All-Volunteer
The Astoria Senior Center's Board of Directors is all-voluntary. The organization depends on our selfless and awesome volunteers from driving the bus to helping with income taxes. There is so much to do, and is so rewarding. Want to try your hand at volunteering? Call Larry at 503-325-3231 or e-mail larry@astoriaseniorcenter.org.
