Recipes Tried and True Senior
Resources of Broomfield Inc. is undertaking a new fund raiser endeavor.
We
are in the initial stages of publishing an international / ethnic cookbook
and we need your help. Just
think of all the recipes that are passed down from one generation to another.
This is an excellent opportunity to share those recipes for a good cause.
All
profits from the sale of the cookbook will be used to provide ongoing
financial assistance to Broomfield seniors who require help to maintain
basic needs and address unexpected emergencies.

Discounts for Seniors Many stores offer discounts for seniors, but do not advertise this fact. Following is a listing of stores and the discounts they offer. It is always a good idea to ask before hand, as in some cases senior discount policies may be temporarily in place or may have expired. Remember, always ask. Many stores will provide discounts but do not offer them outright. Your help to build this list is appreciated, so if you know of any other discounts offered to seniors please send us an e-mail by clicking on this link. There is also a clip board located at the Broomfield Community Center. |
