Our Mission

The mission of The Foundation of Laguna Woods Village  is to provide temporary financial assistance to economically disadvantaged village residents.

What We Do

                      The Foundation provides emergency assistance to qualifying seniors  with:                         

• supermarket cash cards
• prescription payments
• utility bill  payments 
• medical and dental  bill payments
•  care giver and respite care services 
•  taxi vouchers for travel to health care providers 
•  gas cards 

Who Qualifies?

The needs of individuals are identified and verified by the Department of Social Services and held in confidence.  If you have a friend or family member who may need temporary help, Laguna Woods Village has a wonderful Social Services Department -- always ready to lend a hand.   Recipients remain anonymous to The Foundation and all assistance payments are made directly to the service providers.  Please don't worry. Your request is kept strictly confidential. The Foundation, when requested by Social Services, provides the funding only to the provider, not to the client. 

To reach Social Services help is only a phone call away, 949-597-4267.

One example of what The Foundation does for Village residents in need:

$50 & $100 Grocery Cards--for many residents, living
on a budget has  been difficult and grocery cards have 
been a lifesaver. 

In 2014 we donated over $20,500. in grocery cards.
Over the past four years we have donated over $70,000 
in grocery cards.
