National Senior Citizens Day, 8/21/2012

On August 19, 1988, President Ronald Reagan signed Proclamation 5847 to declare August 21 as National Senior Citizens Day.  He stated in his address,

"For all they have achieved throughout life and for all they continue to accomplish, we owe older citizens our thanks and a heartfelt salute. We can best demonstrate our gratitude and esteem by making sure that our communities are good places in which to mature and grow older."


We support this statement.  Please go out and celebrate our elderly people everyday.  Do anything, no matter how large or how small to support a cause for senior citizens.  Most of all, encourage children to do the same.
