Founded by Rose Marie Willard Myers as a field of interest fund to support the needs of senior citizens in Frederick County.

The fund was created by Rose Marie Willard Myers and will provide annual grants that help seniors with basic human needs, therapeutic, socialization, recreation, and nutrition needs, and other areas that enable seniors to age in place. Mrs. Myers, a participant in programs offered by the Frederick Senior Center, wanted to assist the Center and other organizations that respond to the needs of seniors and through the fund, can do so in perpetuity. In addition, she wanted to honor her late husband, George “Bud” Myers.
