Do You Want to Volunteer?

I just wanted to pass this on for New Yorkers who are interested in volunteering with Citymeals-on-Wheels and helping out home-bound seniors.  This is their link so you can learn all about their volunteer opportunities... http://www.citymeals.org/ 

Besides helping to deliver hot meals to seniors all around the City, there are also volunteer opportunities such as, writing letters to seniors to cheer them up, visiting seniors at their homes, telephoning seniors and chatting with them, and also card-making for all different holidays throughout the year.  I have been a part of the letter writing program and also the card-making program for several years now.

Below is a Holiday card I put together today...sort of a colorful collage.  Now I have to reproduce it by making color copies of it, and then make them sturdy by gluing construction paper on the backs of each one! 

I love doing these projects and find it a relaxing and fulfilling experience! 
So if you'd like to brighten a senior's day, and have a few extra hours per month to spare, please look into it!  Thanks!
