[August 12, 2011]  On Thursday, a $5,000 check for senior services was presented to Community Action from the Lincoln Elks Lodge 914 Charitable Trust Fund.

Marcia Warner of the Lincoln Elks Lodge presented the check to Angela Stoltzenburg, Community Action executive director. The funds will be used to support Community Action's Senior Nutrition and Senior Transportation programs.

"We are very grateful to have the support of the Lincoln Elks Lodge," said Angie Jenkins, senior programs director. "Seniors will directly benefit from these funds as we continue to provide meals and transportation."

Community Action's Senior Nutrition program delivers five meals each week to seniors every Monday, Wednesday and Friday. In addition to home-delivered meals, senior dining sites are located throughout Logan County. The agency's Senior Transportation program provides transportation for seniors to medical appointments, social trips and other needs.

Community Action senior programs are provided to seniors age 60 and over for only a suggested donation. The agency has provided these services to seniors for over 35 years.

Seniors interested in participating in the Senior Transportation or Senior Nutrition program can contact Community Action at 217-732-2159.

Community Action Partnership of Central Illinois is a not-for-profit agency serving the low-income and senior populations of six counties in central Illinois. For more information, visit www.capcil.org.
