AARP Hearing Center
Betty Gambino’s story began in the heart of New York City's vibrant Bronx borough where she lived until she moved to suburban Long Island to raise her four children. In 1997, Betty and her family relocated to Florida, where she worked for American Express. Upon her retirement, Betty found her true calling – a dedication to service and advocacy that would define her path for years to come.
Betty wasted no time in channeling her energy into issues she was passionate about. Fueled by a deep-seated belief in the need for healthcare reform in the United States, she began volunteering with AARP Florida. With a commitment to understanding the intricacies of healthcare policy, Betty immersed herself in the nuances of Obamacare, becoming a beacon of knowledge within her community. Armed with insights and a passion for change, she embarked on a mission to educate and empower seniors, advocating for their rights and well-being.
