Over 700 ACC supporters and volunteers joined us at the 26th Annual
ACC Nursing Home Fundraiser as we celebrated 25 successful years of our
ACC Nursing Home (ACC NH). When ACC was just an idea, financial gifts
were needed to plant the seed and begin construction of the ACC NH. This
year, we honored ACC NH’s Medallion Donors (those who have generously
donated $25,000 or more), Angelo K. and Sophia Tsakopoulos, Dr. John
Eng, Timothy S. Jang, Mr. and Mrs. Tom Mizuno, and Art and Barbara Tom.
Their contributions began the boost in fundraising that allowed ACC to help
the aging population in the community.
ACC would not be the successful organization we are today without past
and present support. This year, we received more sponsorship donations
than ever before. We also received great silent auction items like a Toshiba
32” LCD flatscreen TV, handmade jewelry, sports memorabilia, and gift
certificates to golf courses and restaurants.
The fundraiser would not have been possible without the support of
over a hundred restaurants and businesses. In these difficult economic
times, ACC is truly grateful of all the donations that we receive. Please see
pages 14 and 15 for the sponsors, restaurants, businesses, and volunteers
that contributed to this year’s fundraiser. Please help us by thanking and
supporting the businesses and restaurants that support ACC. 

If you have been by the ACC
Greenhaven Terrace (ACC GT)
community room at 8:30 AM, you have
probably heard the music and spotted
residents stepping, strengthening, and
stretching to prompts from Joaquin
Ngarangad. For the last eight years,
Joaquin has donated his time and
expertise as a certified fitness trainer to
help keep our community healthy and
happy.
My “Fitness for Life” class meets
Monday, Wednesday, and Friday.
Joaquin combines dance, yoga, and
tai chi in our workout. What you will not
know without joining the class is that
Joaquin makes his class a welcoming
space for everyone. He knows how
to work with the full range of senior
needs, taking care to demonstrate
new movements slowly and carefully.
He takes pride in adapting routines so
every member of the class feels able
to keep up. Francis Sipin Everlin,
who spent two years in a wheelchair
after a serious car accident, says that
Joaquin’s classes helped her progress
from wheelchair to cane to walking.
Another resident insists that Joaquin
has not just been a teacher but a friend.
Joaquin genuinely cares about his
students.
Joaquin, a practicing Buddhist, pays
attention to every detail. He even takes
care to select just the right music for
each activity. Joaquin’s dedication to his
classes and to his students has been a
special gift to the ACC community. I find
I look forward to Monday, Wednesday,
and Friday mornings. 

As we end another
successful
year,
the
message I want to convey is
to say thank you and to offer
congratulation to all the ACC
employees for a job well
done in carrying out the ACC
mission to provide a range
of services for older adults
in the community. These
services are in keeping with
the ACC mission to promote
the general welfare and
to enhance the quality of
life for our community by
identifying, developing, and
providing culturally sensitive
health and social services
for older adults. Just this
year, the success of our
mission was celebrated with
the 25th anniversary of the
ACC Nursing Home, the 10th
anniversary of ACC Park
City, and the 5th anniversary
of Greenhaven Terrace.
While years of service
may be a benchmark, it does
not sufficiently acknowledge
and recognize how this
success was attained over
the years. There is no doubt
that volunteers, donors,
and stakeholders all make
contributions and share
the success. But, let’s not
over look the valued and
dedicated ACC employees
who come together to carry
out the ACC mission.
Depending
on
the
location
and
employee
President’s Message
ACC President of the Board
William Yee
work assignment, each
ACC program has a specific
mission in keeping with ACC’s
overall mission to serve
seniors by fulfilling a vision
to create an array of services
that help older adults sustain
their independence and life
styles. As a test, see if you
can identify the ACC program
that is associated with the
following mission statements:
To create a culturally
sensitive, lifelong learning
and wellness environment
that inspires people to age
well by staying informed,
mentally and physically
active and connected with
the community (ACC Park
City Programs); To provide
a high quality residential
community that is safe,
supportive and maintains
an independent lifestyle for
the active older adult (ACC
Greenhaven Terrace); To
provide a compassionate,
safe,
and
comfortable
environment that recognizes
our cultural diversity and
assures proactive clinical and
social services for residents
and family members (ACC
Nursing Home); To promote
the general welfare and to
enhance the quality of life for
older adults by identifying,
developing, and providing
culturally sensitive nutritious
meals and related activities
(Meals on Wheels by ACC).
We ask a great deal
from our staff to carry out
each specific mission by
planning and implementing
the program services that
best serve the community at
large, particularly our clients,
participants, and residents.
Because of their hard work
and dedication to deliver
quality care to seniors in the
community, the ACC staff
deserves tremendous praise
for the positive impact they
make in touching the lives of
many everyday, every week,
every year.
In 2013, look for news
about more ways that ACC
is mission-driven and is
positioning itself to offer
assisted living residential
services in the near future.
With our talented staff, we will
be up to the challenge. 

What is Planned Giving?
by Esther Aw, Financial Advisor
Planned giving, sometimes referred to as gift planning, is defined as a method of supporting non-profits and charities
that enables philanthropic individuals or donors to make larger gifts than they could make from their income. While
some planned gifts provide a life-long income to the donor, others use estate and tax planning techniques to provide
for charity and other heirs in ways that maximize the gift and/or minimize its impact on the donor’s estate.
Thus, by definition, a planned gift is any major gift, made prior to or at death as part of a donor’s overall financial
and/or estate planning.
By contrast, gifts to the annual fund or for membership dues are made from a donor’s discretionary income, and
while they may be budgeted for, they are not defined as a “planned gift.”
Whether a donor uses cash, appreciated securities/stock, real estate, artwork, partnership interests, personal
property, life insurance, a retirement plan, etc., the benefits of funding a planned gift can make this type of charitable
giving very attractive to both donor and charity.
What are the 3 types of planned gifts?
• First, outright gifts that use appreciated assets as a substitute for cash;
• Second, gifts that return income or other financial benefits to the donor in return for the contribution;
• Third, gifts payable upon the donor’s death.
What gift plans return income to donors?
Charitable gift annuities make fixed payments, starting either when the gift is made (an immediate-payment gift
annuity) or at a later date (a deferred or flexible gift annuity). Some organizations maintain pooled income funds, which
commingle donations, pay beneficiaries variable depending on the earnings of the fund, and generally operate like a
charitable mutual fund. Charitable remainder unitrusts and annuity trusts are individually managed trusts that pay the
beneficiaries either a fixed percentage of trust income or a fixed dollar amount.
What are the tax benefits of planned gifts?
• Donors can contribute appreciated property, like securities or real estate, receive a charitable deduction for the full
market value of the asset, and pay no capital gains tax on the transfer.
• Donors who establish a life-income gift receive a tax deduction for the full, fair market value of the assets contributed,
minus the present value of the income interest retained; if they fund their gift with appreciated property they pay no
upfront capital gains tax on the transfer.
• Gifts payable to charity upon the donor’s death, like a bequest or a beneficiary designation in a life insurance policy
or retirement account, do not generate a lifetime income tax deduction for the donor, but they are exempt from estate
tax. 

Deadline for Estate Planning Opportunity
by Esther Aw, Financial Advisor
We are at the threshold of major estate tax changes that under current law will occur on January 2, 2013. This creates
opportunities for planning now.
The current estate and gift tax laws are due to “sunset” (expire) on December 31, 2012, creating opportunities for those
who are willing to take advantage of strategies by the end of the year.
The bad news is estate and gift tax rates are going up, while the amounts protected (exempt) from these taxes are going
down.
Current 2012
Sunset 2013
Estate Tax Exemption/Rate
$5.12M/35%
$1M/55%
Gift Tax Exemption/Rate
$5.12M/35%
$1M/55%
GST Exemption/Rate
$5.12M/35%
$1.4M/55%
The good news is that there are several strategies available to help offset this tax increase, but they must be completed
by December 31, 2012.
Summary of changes coming on January 1, 2013:
- The ability to make lifetime gifts totaling $5.12 million expires and it reduces to $1 million;
- The amount of wealth exempt from estate taxation at death is reduced from it’s current level of $5.12 million to
the $1 million level.
- Estate tax rates on excess amounts increase from its current level of 35% to as much as 55%.
What can be done?
Assets can be shifted outside of your estate, while maintaining a level of access, if certain techniques are implemented.
What is significant for the balance of 2012 is that a lifetime total of $5.12 million can be gifted, which will decrease to $1
million in 2013. Strategies can be implemented to reduce the amount of wealth going to the IRS, while increasing the
amount going to your heirs.
Regardless of whether your estate is $5 or $10 million, there is still an opportunity to maximize and take advantage of
these exemptions to leave a larger legacy not only to your heirs, but also to your favorite non profit organizations that help
out your community. 

Letter From the ACC Nursing Home Administrator
STAFF DIRECTORY
Fall has arrived and, with it, lots of activity here at
ACC Nursing Home. Our Transitional Care Unit has
been very busy, serving 15-20 additional community
members per month. These individuals come to the
Nursing Home for a short stay after hospitalization,
to rehabilitate and return home. Our Admissions
Coordinator, Kory Ishikawa, has been able to share
many success stories with the referring hospitals and
physicians. If you or a loved one should find yourself
in need of rehabilitation, we hope that you will request
that your physician refer you to ACC Nursing Home.
Halloween was quite an event this year at the Nursing Home. The residents
and staff were treated to a very realistic Haunted House full of spooky twists
and turns. Many of the staff did not make it to the end (the residents were
much more brave)! Everyone really enjoyed the antics of the staff who
dressed up for the ACC Costume Contest. We had a baby cow, a pregnant
witch, three blind mice, and even a visit and song by Prince for the event. The
fun continued with a scarecrow contest and a pumpkin pie eating contest. It
was great to see residents enjoying themselves so much they could not stop
smiling and laughing. We even had former short-stay residents return for the
festivities.
In November, for the second year, five students from Apollon University
in Germany visited the Nursing Home to study our practices in collaboration
with the College of Continuing Education at California State University,
Sacramento. The afternoon was enlightening for our managers as well as the
students as we shared how nursing homes differ in America and Germany.
The students were very impressed with ACC Nursing Home and the staff
who provide such great care.
The Nursing Home TV/cable project is moving forward, thanks to the help
of individuals and organizations in our community. Installation of individual
televisions at each bedside is scheduled to begin the week after Thanksgiving.
We expect to have the TVs installed and the programming up and running
before the end of the year.
The Thanksgiving Dinner for Residents and family members was on
Wednesday, November 21. We kicked off this Holiday Season with friends
and family by remembering all we have to be thankful for.

ACC GT residents celebrated the end of the “lazy hazy days of summer”
with an end of summer BBQ. Hotdogs and hamburgers grilled to perfection,
chips, beverages and brownie bites were enjoyed by all. Entertainment was
provided by ACC GT Committee Member Glenn Watanabe and the ACC Guitar
Ensemble. Many volunteers shared in the fun-filled afternoon as well.
Autumn brought the beginnings of the holiday season…and does ACC GT
know how to celebrate! The Resident Council sponsored a Halloween gathering
with appearances by witches, goblins and ghosts.
ACC GT’s Thanksgiving meal this year tried to replicate the idea of the original
meal shared by the Indians and Pilgrims so many years ago. Turkey, dressing,
mashed potatoes and gravy was provided and each participant was asked to
bring a traditional family side dish to share. What a cornucopia of flavors, aromas
and tastes...mmmm good.
Besides all the holiday celebrating, ACC GT residents also managed to have
an E-Waste collection, participate in cooking demonstrations, brain fitness
classes, exercise classes, domino and pokeno games and of course bingo.
ACC Greenhaven Terrace always has something going on.
ACC Greenhaven Terrace currently has senior apartments available for
immediate move-in. Our rents are surprisingly affordable, and our welcome mat
is ready and waiting - come visit! 

A Recap on the Walk to
End Alzheimer’s
By Bonnie Chow, MSW
On Saturday, October 6th, I had the honor to join
individuals, families and communities in a united effort
to take a stand against Alzheimer’s. The Alzheimer’s
Association Walk to End Alzheimer’s® is an annual
event that raises awareness and critically needed funds
towards the fight against Alzheimer’s.
A crowd of 3,000 gathered at the State Capitol to
walk to end Alzheimer’s. I was amazed and touched by
the uplifting and hopeful energy of the day, despite the
devastating impact of the disease. For me, the Promise
Garden ceremony captured the amazing spirit of all those
touched by Alzheimer’s.
Each person connected to someone with Alzheimer’s
has his or her own personal reasons for walking to
end Alzheimer’s. The Promise Garden ceremony is a
reminder that truly we are not alone in the Alzheimer’s
journey. Through color, the Promise Flower represents
the diverse reasons why participants gathered:
Blue – I have Alzheimer’s
Yellow – I am supporting or caring for someone with
Alzheimer’s
Purple – I have lost someone to Alzheimer’s
Orange – I support the cause and a vision of a world
without Alzheimer’s.
In the quiet moments of the ceremony when Promise
Flowers were raised by participants, I felt my commitment
to this cause strengthen as did my hope that this disease
can be eradicated.
Over $312,000 dollars was raised throughout the year
by the 259 teams and individual walkers in the Sacramento
area. In many ways, the Walk to End Alzheimer’s is also
a celebration of the lives of those with the disease and
the dedication of those who care for their loved one.
ABOUT: The Alzheimer’s Association is the leading
voluntary health organization in Alzheimer’s care,
support and research. Our mission is to eliminate
Alzheimer’s disease through the advancement of
research; to provide and enhance care and support
for all affected; and to reduce the risk of dementia
through the promotion of brain health. Our vision is
a world without Alzheimer’s. For more information,

Center. For more information, please call (916) 393-9026.
Walk to End Alzheimer’s: A
Caregiver’s Perspective
By Raj Raj
This year’s Alzheimer’s
Association Walk to End
Alzheimer’s was special
for me. My whole family
was able to participate;
three other family/friends
joined, and so did my mom,
who has Alzheimer’s. With
the help of a wheelchair
borrowed from a friend, mom and I did the one mile walk,
while everyone else did three miles. By the time we finished
our one mile, the rest of the family had finished their three
miles.
Ever since mom’s diagnosis, I have been bombarded
with information about Alzheimer’s from the doctors, adult
day programs that mom attends, like ACC Respite, the
Alzheimer’s Association, and friends from the Alzheimer
Association support group. Mom’s disease has changed my
life. My role has changed from daughter, to mother, and now
full-time caregiver for my mom, and with that comes a whole
new bunch of responsibilities.
I am amazed how every year the Walk brings new ideas
and more awareness about Alzheimer’s. There are pills and
patches to manage the symptoms of Alzheimer’s. There
is talk about turmeric, coconut oil, and other herbal stuff.
There’s no cure yet, but I’m hopeful that within my lifetime
we can find how to rid the world of this disease. 

Script Your Future Health Fair at ACC Park City
The health fair and workshop at the ACC Park City on October 22, 2012
was a great success in helping people Script their Futures through increased
education and improved medication adherence. We had about 90 participants
and we’re already looking ahead to next year’s event. Health Net generously
provided give-aways, free glucose tests, and a presentation on diabetes.
Pharmacist volunteers from Pfizer, Rite Aid, CA Northstate University College
of Pharmacy, University of the Pacific, and the Pharmacy Foundation of California assisted with medication reviews
and management. Dietician Michele Lites from Kaiser provided nutritional education with flair – we sampled a bean dip
and no-cook pumpkin pudding. Sponsors and supporters included Sanofi-Aventis, American Diabetes Association, Me
Communications and Area 4 Agency on Aging. A special thanks goes to City Councilman Darrell Fong and his staff (Noah
Painter and DInah Fischer) for their ongoing support in bringing the issue of medication adherence to the forefront. 
