Aging in Our Community

A Message from Our President & CEO, Robert Ojeda, Ph.D. A Season of Gratitude and Renewal

A s the year draws to a close, come together in 2025. Each day at Pima Council on Aging, I see the impact of neighbors caring for neighbors, volunteers giving of their time, and donors sharing their generosity to make life better for older neighbors in Pima County. I find myself reflecting on the many ways our community has This is the season when we are reminded of the importance of connection. At our community lunch sites, friends gather around tables where meals nourish both body and spirit. Through our Medicare counseling program, families receive trusted guidance as they navigate important decisions. Across the county, older adults receive the support they need to remain safe, healthy, and independent in the place they call home.

Our work is made possible because of you. Every gift, every hour of service, and every partnership helps ensure that older adults and their families have the resources they deserve. It is this spirit of shared responsibility that has sustained PCOA for more than five decades and will guide us into the future. As we look toward the coming year, we are renewing our commitment to being both a reliable resource and a trusted advocate. We are listening carefully to the needs of our community, strengthening programs that matter most, and building new partnerships that will help us serve even more effectively. The needs of older adults continue to grow, and together we will meet them with compassion, with dedication, and with hope. In this season of gratitude, I want to offer my heartfelt thanks. Your support allows PCOA to continue a proud
