Giving at Montco SAAC
At Montco SAAC, we’re passionate about empowering aging adults in Montgomery County to live with dignity, connection, and joy.
Every day, people walk through our doors, bringing their wisdom, stories, and spirit. They’re not just here for a warm meal or a fun activity—they’re here to build community. To share a laugh. To spark a new friendship. To feel truly valued.
And that’s exactly what happens here.
​
It’s in the health and wellness classes where their collective learning forms deep bonds. It’s in the lunchroom, where coffee and conversation turn into lasting bonds. It’s in the Meals on Wheels delivery, where a check-in with our volunteer drivers becomes the highlight of their day.
​
Your support makes this vibrant community possible.
By giving, you help keep our programs running, meals coming, and connections thriving. You’re ensuring that aging adults in Montgomery County—your neighbors, maybe even someone close to you—continue to live full, meaningful lives.
​
Please consider making a gift today. It’s not just about programs; it’s about celebrating the strength and spirit of the people we serve. Because growing older should be about living boldly, never fading away.

Gifts of Stock
By donating appreciated stocks, bonds, or mutual fund shares held for more than one year, you can make a significant contribution without using cash. This method allows you to claim a federal income tax charitable deduction for the full appreciated value of the securities. Additionally, you will not incur capital gains tax, making this a cost-effective way to give.
