At Abundant Life Assisted Services, we advocate for every senior to spend their retirement life in quality and comfortable circumstances. However, in our many years of providing families with In Home Elderly Care in Georgia, we commonly observe the struggle that many seniors experience with their finances.
Some of the clients receiving Senior Care Services from us have very little wiggle room for their budget because they live on fixed incomes. Knowing that this is a common challenge for older adults in Georgia, we decided to share this article about how seniors can take advantage of discounts and financial assistance in the state.
- Electricity and Gas
If you are over the age of 65, you may qualify for assistance when paying for utilities like electricity and gas. Visit these links to the websites of major providers in Georgia and find out more about their qualification requirements: - Water and Sewer Services
If you’re a customer at the City of Atlanta (Watershed Management), you may just qualify for a 30% discount on your bill. The main eligibility requirement is for you to be aged 65 or older. Check out the rest of the qualifications on this page. - Restaurants, Grocery Stores, Shops, and More!
You’ll be happy to know that a lot of businesses in Georgia offer senior discounts which means you can considerably reduce your expenses for food, supplies, and more. Make sure to visit www.seniorcitizendiscountlist.org where they listed several stores, shops, and restaurants where elderly customers can enjoy discounts and other perks.
Whenever you’re out shopping, booking tickets, or ordering food, don’t be afraid to ask if there are senior discounts available. We’ve been providing Senior Home Care Services in Georgia for several years now and we know how small savings from every discounted purchase can add up.
Are there other senior discounts we haven’t mentioned in this article? Feel free to share them in the comments section!
