Another year around the sun! Each year I do a birthday fundraiser to support the work of Little Brothers Friends of the Elderly. This year is incredibly special, as all of your donations will BE MATCHED 1:1 through a generous grant we received. This makes every single dollar donated so incredibly impactful.
All
proceeds are donated directly to LBFE to support their incredible
mission to
alleviate isolation and loneliness amongst our older adults in San
Francisco. The money raised will support programs including coordinating our visiting volunteers, rides to medical appointments, care kits with daily essentials and the tech allies program where volunteers teach older
adults the digital skills they need to use the internet independently.
I
have been a volunteer for almost 7 years and on the Board for 3 and hold this organization near and dear to my heart. The
impact we have on our older adults lives through companionship and our
extraordinary programs is truly life changing for them. I was matched
with an older adult for 2 years, Raoul. We loved going to the movies, finding new books at the library,
eating hamburgers and milkshakes, going for walks and being an open ear
without judgement for whatever we wanted to share. As the pandemic hit, it strengthened our communication and bond and I was able to provide a support system to make sure things like food and basic home items were secured as items became unavailable. I was someone to talk to when things were really hard and isolation became a safety measure. He taught me about what San Francisco was like as a bell hop at many of the incredible hotels downtown (so many stories!). We found ways to connect at a distance outside, talk on the phone more and as the world opened up, we jumped on eating outdoors. I am so grateful for our friendship and time together because of the connection LBFE helped to make.
Join me and make a positive change in the lives of San Francisco elders. Help create a continuum of care benefiting the older adult served by LBFE.
