The Phoenixville Kiwanis Club and Phoenixville Senior Center are co-sponsoring a Community Breakfast on Sunday, March 25 from 8 a.m. to noon. 

The breakfast will benefit the Phoenixville Senior Center and will be held at the Center, 153 Church St. in Phoenixville. The breakfast will feature eggs, pancakes, sausage, coffee, tea and juice. In addition there will be a bake sale table with goodies available for purchase. 

Baskets will be raffled off at the end of the breakfast. You do not need to be in attendance at the end of the breakfast to win the raffle. However, you will need to buy your raffle tickets on March 25. 

Tickets are $8 for adults, $7 for seniors and $4 for children under 12. Children under 3 are free.

The Phoenixville Area Senior Center was founded in 1978. According to its mission statement, it exists to serve, support and enhance the lives of all citizens in the greater Phoenixville area over the age of 60. 

The Center offers breakfast three days a week and lunch five days a week. They also offer exercise classes, art classes, computer classes, a tech support class and Wii bowling. There is also a trip program that is very popular.  

The goal is to provide opportunities for older adults to reach their maximum potential. The Center has experienced funding cuts. At a time when more and more seniors are attending the Center they are faced with the challenge of doing more with much less money.
