From the Board President

The Brookline Senior Center accepts donations to its nonprofit foundation. They are tax-deductible. We use your gifts to keep the van running as well to fund furnishings, improvements and innovative programs. This month consider a gift in honor of mothers. We are proud of our community and we need your help to sustain it. Please be as generous as you can.
