Our organisation was originally established in 2003 as the Welfare Centre for German-speaking Seniors by the SA German Association Inc. to support older members of the German-speaking community in Metropolitan Adelaide. German-speaking Aged Services Inc. is a charity registered with the Australian Charities and Not-for -profits Commission (ACNC). All our efforts are aimed to support our community. Donations and bequests are welcome to support our cause. We understand as persons age, their culture and heritage often become even more important- they’re part of everyone’s identity. The majority of our staff and volunteers are German-speaking, and within our community a person is more than a number! At GSASA we support German-speaking seniors and their carers to retain and strengthen their resources such as independence, knowledge, language, mobility, friendship. GSASA links persons back to their community; here they meet peers that can relate to their interests and background.
