Support Forward Creative Commons

After raising more than $5.1 million, Forward Creative Commons, the future home of FiftyForward Bordeaux Senior Center and Creative Girls Rock® is now less than $2 million away from its fundraising goal. Formerly known as the Bordeaux Collaborative, the 9,000-square-foot facility will be an intergenerational hub where older adults and youth will connect, learn, and thrive.

VISIT OUR CENTERS

At seven FiftyForward locations across Davidson, Rutherford and Williamson counties, members enjoy classes, activities, events, trips, and projects focusing on education, health, recreation, and volunteer opportunities. FiftyForward is the only social services agency in Middle TN that offers comprehensive services to older adults ages 50 and over, active and those needing supportive care.

Being a member of FiftyForward Bordeaux since October 2018 has been amazing. I’ve learned a lot about the program and its diverse services for members, staff, volunteers, and guests who are seeking to put their talents adept skills or abilities to good use in the community and also contribute to the tranquil ambiance of the center’s location. Consequently, I sincerely appreciate the comraderies because I’ve become less introverted.

I would like to take this moment to thank you for the call I received last week regarding my health, wellness, and whether I need help in any way. This act of kindness is truly a hallmark of what this organization is all about. I thank you so much … keep up with the sterling services you provide.
The [FiftyForward] Martin Center and its wonderful staff have restored my life and given it meaning.

Our FiftyForward Friends Learning in Pairs (FLIP) volunteers provide much more than just academic support: they build relationships, encourage and inspire our students to be leaders.

Previously I was eating fatty foods, this (FiftyForward Fresh/Meals on Wheels) changed my diet. Now I eat more vegetables and wholesome foods. I appreciate the people who take time out of their day to deliver this service.

I am a full-time caregiver for my mother and the center gives me fun times with small acting groups.
