Students work with residents of long-term care facilities to create scrapbooks of residents' lives.
Volunteers should be self-directed, have their own transportation, and be ready for a rewarding relationship with an older adult. IGP coordinators will monitor the Memory Book pairing and provide any guidance or support needed. This is a very meaningful opportunity to work with an elder. Volunteers check on the older adults, providing some companionship as well as the needed commodities. This program has been very rewarding for KU volunteers.
