News & Events

Being independent doesn’t mean going it alone. True independence comes with support – a community that’s there to lift you up without taking over. Surrey was founded on this idea of independence, and a Neighbor Helping Neighbor philosophy. Those  ideas, along with a growing list of needed services,  are  the reason for our success and growth over nearly 45 years

As you can see from our recently released key performance indicators (KPIs), last year, the number of individuals Surrey served increased 25% from the previous year. Our services – transportation, home care, meals, program participation—all experienced double-digit growth. Due to our uncertain times, the need for assistance grew as well. Subsidized memberships for older adults who are struggling to pay for basic needs increased 177%. 

Our Surrey community would not exist without the generosity of volunteers, donors, funders, and you, our Surrey members. 

December is a month of celebration at Surrey.  Check out our December 2025 Surrey Connect Newsletter. 

Get ready for a month of upcoming Holiday cheer coming from Surrey to you. Please be sure to RSVP early for special events and adjust your transportation if necessary. New programs, new volunteer opportunities, and fun events are ahead.

Did you know 68% of our operating revenue comes from philanthropic contributions? We could not do it without the support of donations.
