Senior Luncheon

at Salem

In Partnership with

Care Access

For the first time in five years, we were proud to bring back our long-awaited Senior's Fall Luncheon in Flatbush, at the historic Salem Missionary Baptist Church, which will be celebrating its 115th anniversary later this month. It was a joyful afternoon filled with bingo, games, raffles, delicious food and pastries, dancing and an energetic DJ who kept the atmosphere lively.

"I am proud we were able to bring our seniors together once again for an afternoon of celebration, connection, and community. It was truly heartwarming to interact with our elders, hear their stories, and honor their contributions to our neighborhood," said Assemblymember Rodneyse Bichotte Hermelyn.
