MEET THE CP

PROJECT SUMMARY

We Are Family mobilizes a committed corps of community volunteers to bring services, advocacy, organizing, and companionship into the homes of 450 isolated, low-income seniors each month. This project ensures 20 seniors will get a visit this Thanksgiving. The visits not only provide companionship, but also ensure that our seniors do not feel alone or forgotten around the holidays, a time when many may experience a special sense of loneliness. Equally as important, the Thanksgiving basket deliveries provide an opportunity to check in on our seniors, provide assistance where possible, and identify broader needs that can be served. In addition, it is also an opportunity for our seniors to build transformative, on-going relationships with their volunteers.
