Aging in Place with Dignity
Aging in Place with Dignity through Vibrant Volunteer Programs
Discover ways you can make your/our community more age-friendly! Through an interactive game show format, you will learn how eight dynamic nonprofits spanning Maricopa County promote aging in place by pairing caring volunteers with “neighbors” who need a bit of help. Shopping, transportation, friendly visits and more make it possible for elders and adults with disabling conditions (“neighbors”) to live in their own homes. Volunteers benefit by gaining friendship and wisdom from neighbors and by being part of a vital cause. Over 200,000 hours of service and 40,000+ rides were provided in 2014 alone. Find out how you can share your time and talent through these proven programs to meet pressing needs, as well as how to request help and spread the word to others.
