The North Platte Senior Center is funded in part by the West Central Nebraska Area Agency on Aging under the authority of the Older Americans Act and the generous contributions of our clients and
those who support our programs including Mid Plains United Way.
The North Platte Senior Center is administered by Community Action Partnership of Mid-Nebraska,
a private, non-profit organization. The Senior Center provides information and referral services, health programs as well as many different programs for you to participate in.
We serve individuals sixty years of age or older and also welcome anyone of any age for meals and friendship. Congregate meals and Home Delivered Meals are served Monday through Friday at a suggested
rate of $4.50 for persons over 60. Persons under the age of 60 are charged a set price of $6.50 per meal.
Children age 5 to age 10 is $5.00.
Consider making a Charitable Gift to benefit the North Platte Senior Center. These contributions
and memorials allow the Center to use your donations where it is needed most. Unrestricted gifts allow us to continually enhance our programs for the elderly. The North Platte Senior Center is a 501(c)3 nonprofit
agency and your gift is tax deductible.
