With all of its members being over the age of 65, The Golden Age Foundation has realized the challenges involved with members getting in and out of public transportation.

sponsors who received a proposal letter was George Pelgrim.  For years, philanthropy and giving back to the community (click here to see) has been a staple in Mr. Pelgrim’s life in St. Maarten, so teaming up with The Golden Age Foundation was an easy decision.
