Testimonials from and about our seasoned ambassadors (seniors)

  • Barbara Walden
    Beauty maven Barbara Walden was so impressed with the Senior Center, she agreed to have her line of cosmetics distributed exclusively in San Diego by the Seasoned Gift Shop. Ms. Walden visits often and gives seniors the opportunity to "rub elbows with the stars." http://www.barbarawaldencosmetics.com/
  • Alicia Bell
    Alicia Bell has a passion for fashion and the finer things. As coordinator of the Seasoned Gift Shop, she hand picks all items and displays them masterfully. "Our seasoned ambassadors have wonderful things to share in order to support the Center. Some are gently used, and much of what we sell is new. There's no need for it to gather dust when someone could enjoy it right now. Bring in that "old" item, and then shop for something new!" says Ms. Bell.
  • Rosemary Pope
    "Age is just a number, and mine is unlisted," quips Rosemary Pope, Executive Director of the George L. Stevens Senior Center. She is a ball of energy with unlimited enthusiasm for the Center and the "seasoned ambassadors" (a phrase she coined) who frequent the premises. At every event, you will see signs of her creativity and attention to detail.
  • Douglas Moore, Jr.
    "We are truly proud of the important work done at the Center, which opened its doors in 2006. We have helped thousands of seniors in our community live more independently and proactively by providing a wide range of services and activities to meet their needs," states Doug Moore, President of the Board of Directors. He is also Executive Director of the United Domestic Workers of America, San Diego Chapter, an organization that ardently supports the Center and its activities.
