Friends Across The Ages is made up of people of all ages who share a common goal -- to establish true friendships with individuals in nursing homes.

Friends assists and trains volunteers to visit with nursing home residents on a one-to-one basis, and also sponsors group activities.

Friends asks you to give one hour per week visiting a person to whom little things mean so much.

There is a REAL PERSON waiting for YOU to visit! Are you brave enough to BRIDGE GENERATIONS?
