Donate to Roseville Area Meals on Wheels, where every dollar of your donation goes back into the community to provide tasty and nutritious meals for our older adult neighbors Monday-Friday. This includes a wellness check by one of our friendly volunteers with each meal delivery. Donations help subsidize the cost of meals for those who cannot afford to pay full price, and for those who are enrolled in third party payer programs.

TODAY IS A GREAT DAY TO LEARN SOMETHING NEW

At age 52, Tom retired from his job with Ford Motors, ready to enjoy retirement. Tom had always managed his own retirement investments, so joining the weekly investment forums at the Roseville Area Senior Program (RASP) was the perfect fit for him. Tom says the financial experts that speak to the groups are particularly insightful, and whether you’re a novice investor or a pro, he says you can always learn something helpful from the investment forums.

“The group knowledge is unbelievable.” — Tom
