Bill > J01132

This resolution commemorates the 50th anniversary of the Alpha Phi Alpha Senior Citizens Center located in Cambria Heights, Queens, recognizing its significant contributions to the local senior community. Established in 1973 by members of the Zeta Zeta Lambda Chapter of Alpha Phi Alpha Fraternity, the center was created to provide recreational, educational, and cultural programs for older adults. The center acquired a permanent facility in 1996 and began full operations in 2006, offering services such as daily nutritious meals, educational workshops, recreational activities, and access to vital information and services. The resolution highlights the center's collaborative efforts with various city, state, and private agencies to support senior citizens, promoting their physical, emotional, and social well-being. By recognizing the center's commitment to uplifting and supporting older adults, the resolution acknowledges its role as a model of community service and an embodiment of the fraternal ideals of Alpha Phi Alpha. The legislative body formally pauses to commemorate the center's achievements and directs that a copy of the resolution be transmitted to the Alpha Phi Alpha Senior Citizens Center, Inc.
