Someone in your neighborhood needs your help. As we age, most of us would like to remain in our homes for as long as possible. That can become more difficult as our ability to drive, prepare food and handle daily chores declines. We may also become more socially isolated and lonely if we lack the local support of friends and family. That’s where you can help.

WILLIAMSBURG _ There are people living in nursing homes and assisted living facilities in the Williamsburg area who feel very alone. Holidays can be particularly lonely for residents who have no visitors, cards or gifts. With a simple holiday visit as part of a team, you can make an extraordinary difference.
