It’s a big year for our community! REAL Services is celebrating 55 years of serving our neighbors in need and 25 years of honoring caregivers at the Age of Excellence Luncheon. It wouldn’t be a real celebration without you!

We are excited for you to join us to recognize our unsung heroes who quietly support their loved ones and lift up our communities through daily acts of kindness, compassion, and selflessness. Make a difference this year by becoming a sponsor, nominating someone special, or attending Age of Excellence.

Together, we can celebrate, get inspired, and provide real services for the independence, strength, and dignity for years to come.
