Thanks to Nathalia Jacques and Hemsworth for helping us tell the story of Paul, a "GranDUDE" who takes his grandkids on Road Scholar's Grandparent Programs each summer. Less than 4% of grandparents who travel 1:1 with grandkids are grandFATHERS. We hope his story will inspire more grandpas out there to do the same! https://lnkd.in/enEuDDiG
