The Mission of Vermilion Council on Aging is to help the elderly of Vermilion Parish maintain their independence and dignity in their homes, and grow old comfortably and gracefully, with an emphasis on reaching those who are isolated, alone, and in need.
Support Our Mission – Vermilion Council on Aging
Our Pink and Gold Gala Luncheon did so much to support the community through our organization’s inspirational work. We know many businesses are planning 2027 budgets now and over the next few months. Mark us down for another event/gala in 2027 and other fundraising sponsorship opportunities. If you have questions or want to direct your donations to specific programs, please call Executive Director Clare L. Martin at (337)893-2563 or email vcoadirector@gmail.com for more information. AND THANK YOU FOR ALL YOU DO!
