Silver Vixens...

a gathering place for women over 55

Have you noticed the following changes since turning 55? Your life has slowed down, you are less active, you are less interested in looking good, having cute shoes, going out with friends? Are your days now so empty you are looking forward to going to sleep?

No? Me neither!

In the Spotlight....

D. Jane Albanese

“I have been secure, I have been hungry, and at times I've been terribly frightened. These experiences have taught me how fragile we are and why we must help one another.

In my youth, I met wonderful people and experienced an extraordinary life of abundance. I studied business administration, owned a successful travel agency and had the opportunity to travel the world. I moved to Florida and purchased a gourmet food mail order business and married my lifelong friend. After his death, I returned to college to become a graphic designer and built a strong business. Then life’s twists and turns took me from great privilege to a place I hope never to visit again.

Watching Oprah Winfrey’s 2006 Holiday Giveaway Program, I remembered the joy I experienced when I helped a father and son reconnect after a 25-year estrangement. Wanting to recapture that raw emotion of joy, Giants of Generosity was born that day. Giants of Generosity is based on the Pay-It-Forward model of recognizing and encouraging altruism in our local communities as portrayed in Catherine Ryan Hyde’s novel of the same name.”

Jane is tireless in spreading the word, seeking donations and partnerships, and meeting peoples’ needs. She truly exemplifies the power of one person with a passion!

Sometimes life has a way of bringing you to your knees. After many years of struggling to survive, Jane realized that in order to heal she must do something worthwhile to help others right where she was planted.
