Save the Date – Annual Pancake Breakfast Dec. 7 On Saturday, December 7th, Rio Verde Fire District Station 441 will host its annual pancake breakfast, with the proceeds benefiting VerdeCares. Bring a new toy, new children’s clothing item, or packaged non-perishable food item to benefit Operation Santa Claus. There will be lots of fun, prizes, and raffle golf certificates from Rio, Tonto, Trilogy, Westin Kierland, Biltmore, and Troon golf clubs. VerdeCares Support Services Within the Verde communities, VerdeCares volunteers provide medical transportation, errands for prescriptions, meal delivery, medical equipment, medication and wound management, nurse wellness visits, home safety assessments, caregiver respite, and additional resources as needed. Our Alzheimer’s monthly caregiver support group provides education and available resources to caregivers. Donations Welcome! We are here for you, and because of you VerdeCares is an Arizona Qualifying Charitable Organization (QCO) with the QCO code 22644. This means that we can now participate in the Arizona Tax Credit program, which allows our community members to redirect their tax dollars to support our mission of being here for you when you need us. This program provides a dollar-for-dollar tax credit on your Arizona state income tax, allowing for contributions of up to $470 for individual filers and $938 for joint filers. We appreciate your support! You are helping us move forward in unity to meet the evolving needs as we age in place in our desert oasis.
Thank you, Tonto Verde, for a fun VerdeCares Thursday night summer dinner at the Mesquite Grill. Volunteers Make a Difference Have a few hours a month?
