About Us

Since 1988, Banner Olive Branch Senior Center has been dedicated to supporting the community by helping older adults stay healthy, active and independent. Our center began with a humble food program at a local church, paying only $1 annually in rent, with a single loaned vehicle for food deliveries. Today, the center has grown significantly. Banner Olive Branch Senior Center serves thousands of seniors annually and distributes well over a million pounds of food each year through our food pantry. We now operate with a fleet of 16 vehicles to support our home-delivered meal program and food pantry services.
