Foster Grandparent Community Corner

Congratulations on your retirement! For the past 10 years, your dedication, leadership, and compassion have been instrumental to our Foster Grandparent Program (FGP) and Senior Companion Program (SCP). Through your guidance, Foster Grandparents were able to support and mentor children in schools, while Senior Companions provided essential companionship and assistance to older adults in our communities. Your work has left a lasting impact on both the volunteers you supported and the lives they served. We are deeply grateful for your years of service and wish you continued happiness and fulfillment in this well-deserved next chapter.

We had a great past two days with our Foster Grandparent and Senior Companion Program in-service training, followed by a small Thanksgiving lunch to show our appreciation. We are truly thankful for our incredible senior volunteers and all the joy and support they bring to our community every day.

Thank you to Stephanie Moore, RN, With Gentiva Hospice
We would like to extend a heartfelt thank you to Stephanie Moore, an RN with Gentiva Hospice, for taking the time to meet with our Foster Grandparent and Senior Companion Program volunteers this week.
Stephanie's dedication to sharing her expertise on dementia, including its early signs, its impact on individuals, and practical ways to support those living with it, has significantly boosted the confidence and capability of our volunteers. Her knowledge and compassionate insight were truly appreciated by everyone in the room.
