How TWF got started....

It was just lunch. At a diner. Maybe five dollars each? But the three elderly women carefully counted out their quarters and dollars, trying to pay the check.

It took just one onlooker and a 20 dollar bill slipped to the waitress to illuminate their faces with gratitude and smiles broad enough to pull tears out of their laughing eyes. Their astonishment was overwhelming. Their words, sobering.

"We didn't know there were people like you still out there. We thought you had forgotten us."

"Twilight Wish is a way we can say thanks and make wishes come true in the twilight years for those who have spent their lives making wishes and dreams come true for you and me."

If you would like to treat seniors to a Dining Unexpected Thank You (DUTY), click here to learn more about the DUTY program and how you can participate.
