Keller Community Senior Fund, Inc., History
In 2012, Elaine Rice presented a petition with over 100 names to the City Council requesting the Council to consider building a new Senior Activities Center.

Those in attendance at the July 2016 meeting identified their individual skills and knowledge regarding the above and agreed to continue to take the necessary steps to assist in this endeavor. During the few months prior to incorporation, the KCSF members developed promotional material and presentations. A Power Point presentation to the Keller Parks and Recreation Board, which has the responsibility for the KSAC, covered the uniqueness and positive impact the KSAC has on seniors in the community. Our Mission, Vision and Purpose were presented and applauded by the Committee members.
Since that time, meetings were held and more volunteers committed their time and expertise resulting in the application and final approval for the Keller Community Senior Fund to be incorporated as of December 5, 2016. A Board of Directors was identified, bylaws were approved, committees were established, outreach to community businesses and organizations was initiated, fundraising activities were implemented, legal documents completed and banking was established.
As a result of the hard work and dedication outlined above, The Keller Community Senior Fund, Inc., is an official non-profit 501(c)(3) organization.
