Sponsored by the Milanesi School in cooperation with the Atlantic County Division of Intergenerational Services, the LIFE project began last year when Ed Ziegler of the Municipal Alliance inquired about bringing additional volunteers into the school. There are currently five senior volunteers participating in the project. The kids look forward to our visits and make us feel special. It's nice to know that we're making a difference in a child's life. Volunteers may select their assignments and create their own schedules, but they should be able to commit to a two hour time period each week and have their own transportation.
All seniors receive orientation and are subject to a background check.
