    Description

    Not Enough Elderly Neighbors Have Caring Supports They Can Trust!  You Can Change That

    Not Enough Elderly Neighbors Have Caring Supports They Can Trust - You Can Help by getting them to the grocery store, out to the park, occasional medical appointment or have coffee together. When they have a caring companion, they can experience better health, more joy and a deeper connection to the community. You know something needs to be done and you know it is easy, so reach out now - it's only an email and we can answer all your questions and then help you connect. So easy! My friend in Danielson needs someone who will see her, visit and spend a few minutes working a puzzle, sorting some mail or enjoying the sunshine. Make my phone ring for something besides solar panels and time share exit plans.
