抖阴福利导航 Announces Senior Corps
Story by Mark Evertz
抖阴福利导航 has established Senior Corps, an opportunity for seniors to help college students and at the same time earn satisfying personal rewards.
Joining the Seniors Corps, says coordinator Dorothy Brehm who is a retired senior herself, gives older adults a fun and rewarding way to expand their horizons and connect with others. Individuals’ skills, interests and available volunteer time will be matched to 抖阴福利导航 departments. Some of the service opportunities include assisting in the biology lab, helping students with special needs, volunteering at the Washington County Historical Museum and helping at the Rock Creek Campus library.
The Senior Service Corps is linked with 抖阴福利导航’s Senior Studies Institute which offers a unique program for older adults to engage in group discussion, exchange ideas and expand their knowledge on a variety of subjects, including current events, genetic engineering and through participation in the National Issues Forum.
The Senior Studies Institute is run by its members who plan and conduct the programs and classes.
For more information on the Senior Service Corps, please contact Dorothy Brehm at 977-4358; for additional information on the Senior Studies Institute, call Neal Naigus at 977-4122 or turn to page 122 of 抖阴福利导航’s Winter Schedule of Classes for a complete listing of current classes.
