Palo Alto’s median age is 42.5, and nearly one in five residents is over 65. For more than five decades, Avenidas has been a trusted partner helping older adults stay active, connected, and independent. Across three locations, its programs range from adult day health care at the Rose Kleiner Center, caregiver support and navigation services, and culturally rich offerings at the Chinese Community Center and Rainbow Collective, to transportation, volunteer engagement, fitness, arts, lifelong learning, and the innovative Avenidas Village membership program. These services prevent isolation, preserve independence, and create a sense of belonging. At the helm is Kristina Lugo, LCSW, a compassionate nonprofit executive with more than two decades of experience leading organizations that serve older adults and strengthen communities.

“EHP is such an important organization for PACF to support, because it’s really the very definition of a program where neighbors are helping neighbors,” she [Irene Wong] said. “It’s rooted in the community. It’s got volunteers, local donors and local families coming together to ensure that everyone has enough.” PACF is proud to support EHP - Ecumenical Hunger Program.
