Descripción
You can change a life in two hours or less! When older people become less active, they can also become forgotten. Visit a senior, help with their mail, hold their hand while they wait for the doctor to call them in, take them for lunch or to shop for groceries. Your inner talents can be put to use with a neighbor who is blind right in your neighborhood.
We are prone to judge success by the index of our salaries or the size of our automobiles, rather than by the quality of our service relationship to humanity. Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr
