Social Impact Event: Little Brothers Friends of the Elderly Visits Join the Penn Club as we bring spring cheer to the elderly of Philadelphia! Help brighten the day of an "old friend." The Penn Alumni Club of Philadelphia will be spending a morning with elderly members of the Philadelphia community through a partnership with Little Brothers Friends of the Elderly, an organization devoted to relieving isolation and loneliness among the elderly. Most of the people targeted often lack a social network of family and friends or have few opportunities to develop social relationships. They need friendship and companionship. Spending just a short time with them could make a big difference in their lives. Volunteers will meet at 10:45 AM in the courtyard of the Casa Farnese, located at 1300 Lombard Street. We will split into teams of two to make our visits to building residents. Volunteers will be provided with a small plant and gift to bring to the "old friends." All you need to bring is a smile! After our visit, Penn Club volunteers can chat about their experience over lunch — location TBD. We hope you'll join us!
Date: Saturday, June 6, 2009 *Please note — the deadline to register is Monday, May 11, 2009 in order to coordinate visits with the elderly residents. The event is open to Penn Alumni only. Limited space is available so sign up today! |
