Friends For Downers Grove Township Seniors

To foster the independence and well being of older adults in Downers Grove Township! We are a NON PROFIT FUNDRAISER For Downers Grove Township Seniors.

Every dollar we collect passes through and goes directly to the causes we represent as a non salaried Executive Board. Our most recent achievement has been the successful furnishing of the Downers Grove Township Center Kitchen and the meeting facility. Contact us to inquire as to how you can help!

Spreading awareness about one of the many incredible programs offered through DuPage County. Information in the picture below.

Many folks have very little awareness of all the things that DuPage County does for the community.

Part of the reason for this is that they don’t have a “huge advertising budget” as that would cut into their effectiveness in providing services for people.
