We extend our heartfelt gratitude to Cindy Doumani for her unwavering support and dedication to our cause. As a former performer and showgirl at the Thunderbird Hotel alongside legends like Dale Robertson and June Havoc, Cindy's talent and charisma have left an indelible mark on the entertainment industry.

But her contributions extend far beyond the stage. Cindy is a true Las Vegas resident, a philanthropist, and a successful businesswoman. As one of the former owners of iconic establishments like the Tropicana Hotel and Casino, El Morocco, and LaConcha Motel on the vibrant Las Vegas Strip, she has played a pivotal role in shaping the city's history.

Cindy's influence goes beyond her business ventures. Her commitment to giving back to the community is truly inspiring. Her philanthropic efforts have touched countless lives and have made a lasting impact on numerous charitable organizations.

A huge thank you to the incredibly talented Hayley Taylor for generously donating her stunning artwork to our 4th Annual Gala! 🎉✨ We are so grateful to have had her beautiful creations grace our event and support our cause.

Hayley's journey from a dancer at Disney World and on cruise ships to performing in large-scale production shows in South Africa, Atlantic City, and Las Vegas is truly inspiring. But it doesn't stop there - in 2004, she discovered her passion for painting and it quickly grew into a thriving business.

From her captivating showgirl paintings that took the art world by storm, to her versatility in capturing various subjects, Hayley's talent knows no bounds. Her dedication to capturing the timeless beauty of the LV showgirl is truly remarkable.

Once again, thank you Hayley for your incredible contribution to our Gala. We are truly grateful for your support! 🙏❤️

Our Story

Established in 2002 by Favil West and Chuck Davis, the Foundation Assisting Seniors (FAS) began with a mission to assist the senior community in times of illness, recovery, confinement at home, coping with loss of a loved one, and other senior challenges, as well as to provide assistance with everyday tasks such as household maintenance.

Each year, the foundation provides durable medical equipment and funding to our partners in the Solera and Aliante communities and the Nevada US Chinese Cultural Association. The equipment is also available to seniors (50+) living in the cities of the Las Vegas valley. Since 2002, FAS has responded to over 200,000 requests for assistance services, and the HOWRU© program has saved seven lives. FAS is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit public benefit corporation.

For more information, please call the office at 725-244-4200 or visit foundationassistingseniors.org.
