Retirement Community News

The launch of the website of our partner 55-Alive! was featured prominantly this week on CNBC’s Power Lunch with Dianna Orlick as the MySpace for boomers.  Video of the Boomer Nation segment can be viewed at the following link: http://www.cnbc.com/id/15840232?video=156645771.

The MySpace segment of 55-Alive! makes up only part of the 55-Alive! community.  55-Alive! features over 2,000 lifestyle articles, as well as video of current news, sports, entertainment and health information (such as video of the latest developments in Type 2 diabetes). 

Unlike other websites, 55-Alive! is unique in the users and members control the direction of the website.  Thus 55-Alive! is not a one-way source of information, it’s an interactive community designed so that people can meet others with similar interests.

Central to the 55-Alive!’s mission is volunteering and helping out others.  55-Alive! actively promotes a wide variety of volunteer and philanthropic organizations, and encourages members to write about their volunteering efforts.

55-Alive! is completely free.
