Kavod Senior Life

We are excited to share TWO important opportunities for giving this year! 

Opportunity 1: Help us fund crucial preventative health and medical services for older residents + visitors 

• Did you know that Kavod Senior Life hosts the only nonprofit, on-campus medical center for residents AND older adults in the metropolitan Denver area? 
• The center, founded in 2016, REMOVES BARRIERS TO ACCESS for older adults to receive services for their aging needs. 
  • Rather than visit various locations for care (e.g. dental office, doctor's office), Kavod's center has all services provided in ONE LOCATION. 
  • As people get older, it can be difficult for them make appointments and obtain transportation. Often, family members have to leave work to assist, causing tension and hardship. The center allows for minimal to no transportation needs. 
  • For residents who use the services, they just need to press a button on an elevator to access services. For community members, free onsite parking and welcoming staff create a positive experience that benefits the client. 
  • Services provided in the center include dental care, medical services, podiatry, blood pressure clinics, acupuncture, chiropractic services and more. 
• For GIVES DAY, our goal is to raise $9,300 that to provide:
  • A new, barrier-free exam chair to replace an exam table that is less safe and accessible. 
  • Monthly gentle yoga classes (12 total)
  • One month of heart health education and experiential learning (Heart Healthy Kavod)
  • Boxing classes for Parkinson's prevention (quarterly. 
• Desired Exam Chair  

Opportunity 2: Support our Kavod on the Road outreach program for older adults in the greater community! 

• Kavod on the Road allows us to offer weekly lectures, concerts and outings to individuals living off campus. 
• Programs such as these help combat social isolation and improve mental stimulation, a protective factor against premature onset dementia in older individuals.  
• $5,000 will help us continue delivering these activities at a low cost or free, allowing anyone to attend from any income level 
• In 2025, Kavod on the Road reached 1,600 individuals in the greater Denver area with 50+ programs and an annual aging conference. Around 500 of these individuals attended events regularly!
