This is a great time of year for families to volunteer to help the elderly in our community. Some suggestions for a family volunteer project include:
- Adopt a “grandfriend” and write a letter
- Visit a nursing home
- Rake leaves, clean gutters or wash windows for a senior citizen
- Sing and/or play musical instruments at a nursing home
- Help senior citizens in your neighborhood install smoke alarms
- Offer to pick up groceries for senior citizens
- Enjoy the nice fall weather on a walk with an elderly person in your neighborhood
- Listen to senior citizens tell of their lives
- Teach a senior citizen how to use a computer
Call 272-2087 to get involved in volunteerism.
