Good morning, everyone!

Travail with us will be at Roosevelt Pavilion, located at 2201 Harrison Street, Gary, IN 46410, in the front area. Our team will be there to assist our seniors with various needs.

We have teamed up with Thomas Environmental Services to assist with refrigerator cleaning.

In addition, our team will be available to schedule transportation appointments. If you know a senior who needs transportation assistance, please have them stop by and see us so we can help schedule their appointment.

We are happy to serve and support our seniors. We look forward to seeing you there!

💙 Boots on the Ground for Gary! 💙

Today, our City of Gary Age-Friendly Advisory Council was out in the community supporting our seniors during this difficult time. A huge THANK YOU to Freida Graves and Travail With Us for the generous donations that helped us deliver much-needed items to five senior facilities and senior homes throughout Gary.

Every donation, connection, delivery, and helping hand makes a difference. Gary is facing a crisis following the recent storms, but our community continues to show what happens when we come together and take care of one another, especially our seniors.

❤️ We are here. We are serving. And we are not done yet! 💪🏾
