Council on Aging Orange County is very lucky to have extraordinary volunteers that provide services to over 75,000 seniors and their families in need. Our 380 volunteers provide advocacy and information for Medicare beneficiaries, maintain the rights of nursing home residents and create quality of life for lonely seniors. Gary Dreyfus is a Medicare counselor who is so proud of his beautiful grand daughter Sophia. And we are so proud that he is providing an example of extraordinary service to our community. Our gracious Friendly Visitor Pamela provides needed support for seniors in our community and sets the standard of service for who we are as an agency. The hands are in loving memory of Norma Lauder and the grateful family she leaves to carry on her legacy.
