Joyce Gandelman: Thanks for helping provide legal services for seniors

On behalf of the staff, volunteers board of directors and clients of the Senior Advocacy Network-Senior Law Project, we thank the members of the Stanislaus Community Foundation and The Bee who chose our organization to be a recipient of the Book of Dreams in 2014. Senior Citizens are the fastest growing population in the country and are in need of the legal and social assistance we have been able to give them the past three years. The generous support from our community will allow us to continue this important work.

We also thank the members of our Pro Bono Will panel – some of the finest estate-planning attorneys in Stanislaus County – for providing free wills for our clients. You too provide a valuable service to the senior members of our community and we appreciate the work you do.

Thank you for your support so that we can continue providing free legal services to senior citizens in Stanislaus County

Joyce M. Gandelman, Executive Director, Senior Advocacy Network-Senior Law Project, Modesto
