I need you. If so, the Foster Grandparent Program can give you the opportunity to be with children who can benefit from your knowledge and wisdom. Children have a special relationship with grandparents.
Grandparents are cool and fun to be around.
The neat part is that kids really listen to their grandparents. Unfortunately, though, so many children would love to learn from a grandma or grandpa, but don t have the chance. Foster Grandparents volunteer in schools, hospitals, drug treatment facilities, correctional institutions, and Head Start and day care centers. Foster Grandparent must meet certain income eligibility requirements. They must also love children and be willing to devote twenty hours a week to service.
