WHERE COMMUNITY, CARE & CONNECTION COME TO LIFE

EMPOWERING OLDER ADULTS TO LIVE
VIBRANT & CONNECTED LIVES

The Wallace Center is more than a gathering place — it’s a lifeline for older adults. Through meaningful programs, social engagement and essential services, we ensure that older adults feel supported, valued and connected.

Our Impact

Since 2010, the Friends of the Wallace Center have played a vital role in enriching the lives of older adults in Greenwich by funding projects that bring warmth, dignity and vibrancy to the Wallace Center experience.

Thanks to the generosity of our donors, we’ve proudly supported:

Live musicians performing at a Wallace Center community event.

Special Events & Celebrations: 

From seasonal gatherings to milestone anniversaries, we fund décor, entertainment and enhancements that bring joy and a sense of community to every occasion.

Hand weights and fitness equipment purchased to support Wallace Center wellness programs.

Wallace Wellness Programs:

We’ve purchased new fitness equipment—including hand weights and storage racks so that members can safely participate in exercise programs that support healthy aging and enhance mobility and balance.

The Wallace Café, a welcoming gathering space for members and visitors.

Wallace Café

We funded the popular new espresso and cappuccino machine that helps transform the Café into a welcoming, social space for connection, conversation and great coffee.

Kitchen & Café Completion

Most significantly, we closed a critical funding gap of $438,000 to ensure the successful completion of the newly renovated commercial kitchen and café—an investment in both nutrition and community.

Evidence Based Programs

Evidence-based programs for older adults are clinically validated health and wellness initiatives proven to improve quality of life, reduce risks of chronic disease and support independence through activities like fall prevention, fitness and chronic condition management.

You can play a vital role in helping older adults feel connected, valued and supported by making a donation, volunteering your time or spreading the word.
