Click for Volunteer Link to Elder Wisdom Circle
On my morning scroll for volunteer opportunities, I came across this great post: ”Do you have wisdom to share? Are you 60 or better and enjoy offering guidance to younger generations?” This California-based VIRTUAL program for elders helps connect younger readers with personalized and free advice on topics including love and relationships, family and child rearing, career, self-improvement, etc. Personally, I have been fortunate to benefit from the advice of elder friends and clients and am forever thankful. I know it meant to lot for them to share their wisdom as well! If you have a story about an elder’s advice that helped you or vice versa, please share! I believe in the power of human connection:) Fairmount Speech and Swallowing Therapy Click for Volunteer Link to Elder Wisdom Circle
