Sequoia Living Community Partnerships
Sequoia Living proudly supports organizations that align with our mission to help older adults age healthy and joyful.
The following partnerships reflect our deep connections to the Bay Area and the regions we serve, the seniors who participate in our programs, and the people who call our communities home. Thanks to our foundation, Senior Services for Northern California (SSNC), we can help create brighter futures for those aging in the San Francisco Bay Area.
Beyond the partnerships listed below, our residents and staff support numerous charities through donations, volunteer work, and activism.
We’re proud to partner with the Buck Institute for Research on Aging in Novato, the world’s first biomedical research institution solely devoted to the biology of aging. As a Seminar Sponsor of the Live Better Longer Community Seminar Series, we support their pioneering mission to help people live better, longer lives.
Located near Viamonte, John Muir Health is a vital part of the East Bay health ecosystem. A former board chair and current Sequoia Living resident has been instrumental in strengthening this connection. Visit the John Muir Health Foundation website.
On behalf of Senior Services for Northern California (SSNC), Sequoia Living is proud to support the Little Brothers Friends of the Elderly – San Francisco Chapter Annual Gala.

On behalf of Senior Services for Northern California (SSNC), Sequoia Living is honored to support Curry Senior Center, a legacy organization in San Francisco dedicated to serving the Tenderloin community. For decades, Curry Senior Center has provided vital programs and services that adapt to meet the evolving needs of older adults, ensuring they receive the care, connection, and support they deserve.
Together with the Institute on Aging, we launched the Support Circles program, an eight-week series designed to reduce social isolation, ease symptoms of depression and anxiety, and empower older adults through peer connection and skill-building. The program is made possible with a grant from the Saint Francis Foundation.
The first group began at the Downtown Senior Center, and this October, the next cohort will launch at the Aquatic Park Senior Center, serving Cantonese-speaking and bilingual Cantonese-English participants.
