Special COVID-19 announcement

Although the Center is  closed, it will still be serving seniors of the Yellow Springs Community during this challenging time:

"The Senior Center has partnered with Tom's Market to provide grocery delivery to older adult villagers in need of food. Groceries will be delivered no more than one time per week to a household and only households in the 45387 zip code. Deliveries will occur Tuesday-Saturday. If you call us at 937-767-5751 or email us at info@ysseniors.org by noon on a given day, your groceries will be delivered the next day before noon. If received after noon, they will be delivered in 2 days. Emailing orders is preferred. We will need your order,delivery address, and telephone number. We will contact you for your credit/debit card information. During these uncertain times our commitment is to make sure our older adult population has nutrition."
