February is Senior Independence Month
– and we’re celebrating with impact!
At the Topeka Community Foundation, we believe independence is about more than just aging—it’s about thriving at every stage of life. That’s why we’re proud to invest in The Heritage Home, an intergenerational senior living and childcare center that fosters connection, care, and community.
Watch this video to see how this innovative space is bringing generations together and creating a brighter future for all.
