About Us
The Fargo Senior Services has been providing
services to the senior citizens of this area since 1971. Our services,
which are designed to promote independence and better health for
seniors, include home-delivered meals, community dining, transportation,
outreach, recreational programming, and health screenings. In addition
we publish a monthly newsletter, the Silver Quill, providing information
on events and topics of interest to the senior community.
Our services are for persons 60 years and
older and are funded by the Fargo Park District, the City of Fargo,
Cass County, the state of North Dakota, the federal government,
area organizations, and private and corporate donations. We invite
you to participate in our program and welcome your questions or
comments on our services.
