Village of the Coastside

Join Us in Preventing Loneliness and Isolation, One Neighbor at a Time

 Because I now only drive in my immediate neighborhood, my world has become smaller.  Little by little I was becoming isolated. My daughters were worried about me and frustrated that they didn’t live closer.  When I joined the Village, it was like a new lease on life.  I’ve met wonderful people, made new friends and found new ways to pay it forward. ~Mary, Village Member

 Loneliness is different than isolation and solitude. Loneliness is a subjective feeling where the connections we need are greater than the connections we have. While loneliness has the potential to kill, connection has even more potential to heal. ~Vivek Murthy

Imagine your parent or grandparent alone at home, their world shrinking day by day. Now imagine them thriving instead—connected, engaged, and living independently with dignity.

This is the transformation we strive to create every day at Village of the Coastside and together, with your help, we are changing that story.

At Village of the Coastside, we celebrate the dignity of every older adult.  Our members are active and engaged and we help them stay that way, supporting their desire to age in their own Coastside homes. Our culture emphasizes genuine connections, which combat the isolation of aging and provides the support that can help someone stay in their home.

We are early adopters of aging activities that promote inclusion and prevent loneliness and isolation. We stay on top of the latest information and possibilities to enhance the well-being, mobility, and safety of our members.

Your Gift Changes Lives

Your donation to Village of the Coastside directly funds:

• Transportation to essential medical appointments over-the hill and appointments locally
• Home safety evaluations and critical remedies
• Vibrant social events that build lasting friendships
• Innovative programs that keep minds open and challenged

We don't just provide services; we create a community where everyone matters.

For Adult Children: Peace of Mind When You Can't Be There

Do you worry about your parents on the Coastside while you live elsewhere? Are visits less frequent than you'd like? Your gift ensures your loved ones have a local support system that feels like family. Our volunteers and staff provide the connection and assistance you would give if distance didn't separate you.

The Need is Growing

As our population ages, the demand for our services continues to rise. With your support during Coastside Gives, we can:

• Welcome 20 new members this year
• Expand our volunteer driver program
• Launch new interest groups based on member passions
• Increase our outreach to isolated seniors
• Ensure all our members are prepared in the event of an emergency

Join Our Community of Compassion

Every gift, regardless of size, makes a profound difference.  Will you be the reason someone finds connection instead of loneliness?

Together, we're not just supporting aging in place—we're creating a community where life grows richer with age.
