Beginning Conversational
French
Learning a new language is a
great way to build new brain cells and to keep us sharp. We intend
to start a beginning French class

think you might be interested in joining, please call the office and
leave your name and number so we can measure the interest in
starting this new class.
United Way
Each year the members of the Hartland Senior Center pledge $1000 for the local
United Way. If every member contributed $3.00 we could easily reach that goal.
The Livingston County United Way annually invests in over 50 local health and
human service programs including the Hartland Senior Center and initiatives
which demonstrate effectiveness, collaboration leverage and impact to the
community. Panels of volunteers review applications, attend presentations,
scrutinize budgets, and make funding recommendations to ensure the highest
return on investment of donated dollars.
