Build a Friendship With a Senior in DC

This is a great way to spend time with an individual senior on a schedule that works for you! We work with over 1,000 seniors annually, and many of them are very isolated and have limited opportunity to interact with others. They have seen so much and have amazing stories and experiences to share. We will introduce you to a senior, and then you will have the responsibility of scheduling at least one visit with them each month (more if possible). Our hope is that you will build a friendship that continues over the course of months, or even longer! Many of our seniors live in the core Northwest DC neighborhoods of Petworth, Columbia Heights, Shaw, and Mount Vernon Square, but it may be possible to connect with a senior in another neighborhood that's convenient for you.
