About Us
Since 1962, ElderServe has proudly supported older adults in Louisville's West End, providing essential services to those in need. Our mission is to empower seniors to live independently with dignity. At our newly renovated Oak & Acorn building, we remain committed to helping older adults thrive and supporting families and caregivers in achieving balance.
This work is made possible by our dedicated staff, passionate volunteers, and strong community partnerships. Drawing on our deep roots in the community, we continue to grow our mission and make a positive impact on seniors and West End neighborhoods.
