Established in 2015, Lamorinda Village is a community-based network of older adults living in Lafayette, Moraga, and Orinda, California. Our purpose is to provide the support and connections that will help us remain in our own homes as we get older.
Membership in Lamorinda Village provides a wide array of services:
Events – Cultural, social, and educational events and gatherings.
- Activities – Health, wellness, and fitness activities, and smaller interest-based groups of Village members.
Home-based help – Volunteer services as far-ranging as transportation, grocery shopping, minor household repairs, computer issues, and friendly visitors.
- Referrals – One-call concierge to screened service providers that can include gardeners, painters, attorneys, accountants, and personal care services.
We invite you to learn more about us and sign up to be a member, volunteer, service provider, or supporter.
