Today, State Senator Gustavo Rivera proudly hosted his 8th Annual Senior Health Fair at Lehman College. The event welcomed over 200 seniors, who received valuable health resources from more than 20 partner organizations. Attendees enjoyed raffle prizes and complimentary tickets to the New York Botanical Garden and the Bronx Zoo.

As we continue to prioritize the health and well-being of our senior community, it is an honor to host my 8th Annual Senior Health Fair and connect hundreds of seniors with critical resources and services. Events like these not only promote healthier lifestyles but also foster a sense of community and support for our elderly neighbors,” said State Senator Gustavo Rivera. “I am deeply grateful to all our partners, volunteers, and attendees who made today a success, and I look forward to continuing this vital work in the years to come."

Senator Rivera extends a special thank you to El Valle for providing the delicious food, and to the Morrisania Band Project for their fantastic live performances, which truly brightened the day for everyone. He is also deeply appreciative for our generous sponsors for making the day extra special for our community.
