The goal of the program is to foster inter-generational friendships that give college students a connection to the Northfield community and give senior citizens companionship. Activities may include conversing, reading aloud, playing cards, and participating in group outings. Visits occur on Sunday mornings, but there is also flexibility for volunteers who wish to visit their Grandparents independently. If you would like to do a one-time performance, lecture, or other project, contact the ACT staff.
Volunteers are welcome to help out every week or as often as they like.
No art experience is needed, just the willingness to share a little time.
