Beyond Bingo
The focus of our NEW "Beyond Bingo" ministry is to provide older adult parishioners with resources - such as rides to and from appointments, health and wellness seminars, and fun social events like bingo and bridge.
free smoke/carbon monoxide detectors
American Martyrs seniors living in Manhattan Beach are eligible for a free smoke/carbon monoxide detector. The detectors were a gift from Girl Scout Troop 675 that raised $1,100 through lemonade stands to purchase the detectors. MB Fire Department used their expertise to buy the best detectors and will also assist with the installation of the devices.
Smoke alarms save lives by providing early warning of fire. Seniors are especially vulnerable because of age related mobility issues, hearing loss, maybe living alone. The earlier the warning the better the ability for a senior to escape a fire. Seniors should call the Older Adult Program at 310-802-5449 for more info on this free program.
