For 26 meaningful years, Friends To All has been dedicated to “Touching Hearts with a Visit.” Today, we are honored to announce that we are “Passing the Torch” to an organization that has stood beside us from the very beginning — RSVP (Retired Senior Volunteer Program). Their continued support has strengthened our mission and ensured its longevity.

We extend our deepest appreciation to our volunteers and supporters. Your generosity, time, and spirit have shaped this program into what it is today.

We invite you to join us on Thursday, August 13th at 5:30 p.m. at RSVP (2621 Northgate Lane, Suite 1, Carson City) for a special gathering as we celebrate our history and look forward to the future.

TOGETHER, THE MISSION CONTINUES

This year we are celebrating our 25th year of visiting seniors in our community! We are so excited to announce that this year Friends To All will have a float in the Nevada Day Parade! This year the parade will be held on Saturday, October 26th and the theme is “All For Our Country”.
Be sure to watch for Santa and give him a big “Ho, Ho, Ho” and maybe he’ll pass a candy cane your way.
Tell your friends and family too!

We’d like to shout out a special thanks to ARMAC Construction, for providing us with a large transport truck to use on parade day. We are beyond grateful for your support!

Mark your calendars! Our annual Senior Santa Visits will be held on Saturday, December 14th, 2024. This will be Friends To All’s 25th Year of spreading joy through visits to homebound seniors. We have some exciting things planned this year. Be sure to follow us on Facebook so you don’t miss the fun!
