    Our Story

    Acts Senior Assistance was formed by Judy and Brian Gibson after what their family went through with Brian’s parents after his Dad was diagnosed with Alzheimer’s disease, and not long after his Mom was also diagnosed with Alzheimer’s. As the disease progressed Brian and his two brothers tried the best that they could to care for their parents, that proved to be an extremely difficult task, and they soon realized that they needed help. Like Many They thought that they could get assistance from Medicaid, this turned out to not be the case. After years of trying to navigate the red tape they were never able to get any assistance for Brian’s Dad before he passed away. After his death Brian’s mother lived for another four years but her health continued to worsen and we continued to pursue the help that we needed from Medicaid, at the end of her life she finally qualified for Nursing home care from the state but that was too little too late. The toll that this took on the family both financially and physically was huge, and we know that is happening to many other families, we need to protect our elderly and their unpaid family caregivers and hope that by forming this organization that we can make a difference.

    Where did the name "Acts Senior Assistance" come from?

    It comes from the Bible,  

    Acts 20:35 states that:

    “In everything I did, I showed you that by this kind of hard work we must help the weak, remembering the words the Lord Jesus himself said: 'It is more blessed to give than to receive” which teaches that there is joy in the act of giving when it is done with pure motives. 


    Is Acts Senior Assistance a Christian organization?

    Our founders are Christian's, but this organization is open to all faiths, we will never discriminate against anyone for any reason.


    Can I apply for a grant?

    Not at this time we, are still building the organization, we are incorporated as a nonprofit in California and are currently working on getting our 501(C)(3) certification from the IRS, as soon as we have that completed we will start accepting donations and then accept applications for grants. We estimate that it will take several more months before we are certified and start bringing in enough money to be able to award grants.


    How much money can I apply for?

    The amount that we will be able to provide will be dependent on how much we can raise through Fundraising campaigns and Events., in the early stages of our operation that amount will be small but will grow as we become established. Grants will also vary depending on the individual needs of our applicants.


    How do I qualify for a grant?

    As soon as we are ready to start awarding grants, you will need to fill out an application. We will verify income and expenses to determine how much help that you will need and work with you to start the process. You can join our Waiting list at anytime and we will get back to you.


    How can I find out when grants will be available?

    Contact us and we will add your name to our mailing list and let you know.


    How much of the money donated actually goes to Seniors in Need?

    A minimum of 80% of all donations will go to help seniors. A maximum of 20% will be used for the operation of the organization. Organizational cost include office equipment and supplies, fundraising costs, promotional material and all things needed in the operation of the business.


    Doesn't Medicaid help with senior care?

    In most states Medicaid is available to help with the cost Senior Care, the problem with this program is that they have strict limits on income, personal assets and what they will cover, not everyone will qualify and those that do go through a very long process, we can help until you do qualify.
