At 72, Jack Howell of Lancaster, Pennsylvania, calls Voices of Migration the best idea he’s ever had—and he has good reason to. The longtime community advocate and part of the team of the Spanish-American Civic Association never considered himself a volunteer, much less an AARP member, until a conversation about a grant application took an unexpected turn.
As lovers and those looking for love prepare to celebrate Valentine’s Day, AARP’s Fraud Watch Network releases new tips on how Pennsylvanians can protect themselves from scammers taking aim at their hearts and their pocketbooks.

Today, thousands of older adults are experiencing hunger and there are even more at risk due to the recession. In Philadelphia over 330,000 people are at risk for hunger, and nationally nearly 9 million older adults face food insecurity.
Older adults are an important part of the Philadelphia County community. Influenza (commonly known as “the flu”) is a contagious disease that can be severe and life-threatening, especially for adults 65 years of age and older. AARP community partner Center in the Park will be sponsoring a flu prevention fair.
Technology has changed the way we do nearly everything. Whether you want to communicate with someone, order food, or play a game, there’s an app for that. Last semester, with a grant from McLean Contributionship, Philadelphia AARP Experience Corps volunteers used iPads to deliver support to first and second grade students struggling with reading. What tutors and children alike learned was that using tech for learning can be a lot of fun.
