John Zabawa Legacy Endowment Campaign

John Zabawa has accomplished great things for seniors and caregivers in our community over the past 36 years. Though he is retiring, the work for seniors must go on.
Jefferson County is home to the largest senior population in the state. Colorado has one of the fastest growing populations of older adults in the nation. Many seniors are under serious financial pressure, with rising costs in housing, changes in health care and insurance, and reduced access to needed services.

"John committed 36 years of his life to serving and advocating for seniors in Colorado," says Deborah Brackney, Chair of SRC's Board of Directors. "John brought together so many people and partners to make SRC's mission successful."

With John's retirement, the Board of Directors has taken an important step toward honoring his work and enhancing the stability of SRC and its mission. The SRC Board has established the John Zabawa Legacy Fund Campaign through Community First Foundation. The Legacy Fund campaign runs March 1 - November 30, 2017.

Gifts to this Legacy Fund Campaign will honor John, and help ensure that our growing senior population will continue to receive care from SRC. Gifts to the John Zabawa Legacy Fund build on SRC's existing endowment fund, and will:

• Contribute to an ongoing source of income for SRC;
• Enhance SRC's long-term stability, financial credibility and viability; and
• Relieve pressure on the annual fund, as interest income from the endowment fund can provide annual support for SRC's operating budget.
