Berkeley Seniors, Inc.: Mission Statement

Our Mission

To assist older residents of Berkeley County to age successfully in their natural environments by providing and developing community programs to support physical, mental and emotional well-being.

Support
Berkeley Seniors, Inc. is a private, non-profit organization that receives financial support from Berkeley County Government, local civic organizations, individual contributions and the state Division of Senior Services.

About the Board
We are governed by a volunteer Board of Directors representing the lower, middle and upper geographical sections of Berkeley County. The Board meets as needed, on the third Thursday of the month. Joining: If you are a resident of Berkeley County and are interested in applying for Board membership, please call 843-761-0390.

A Note from Our Board
In November 1995, the Board of Directors accepted the challenge of meeting the individualized needs of senior citizens and their families. Although we are not a large organization, we are serving a population scattered throughout a predominantly rural county. Research shows that South Carolina is one of seven states attracting more senior citizens than any other in the United states. In South Carolina, Berkeley County is among those attracting a growing number of retirees.

Each year we have endeavored to make improvements and adjustments to our services in order to encourage and support independence for older adults. Of course, we can not address these needs alone. Please feel free to provide us with your thoughts and ideas. We welcome your help and encourage you to join our team of dedicated volunteers!
