88% of volunteers experience decreased anxiety, depression, and loneliness. While 84% report stable or improved health after one year of service. If you enjoy encouraging children to be their best self, and you are 55 or better and on a limited income, the Foster Grandparent Program could be what you are looking for! Giving back by serving children and helping those in need gives you purpose and helps teach them empathy and compassion. No educational requirements, just a passion to help children. A Foster Grandparent volunteer provides 15 or more hours to support non-profit schools, Head Start and Early Head Start classrooms, childcare and development centers and after-school programs. Through service, volunteers can earn a non-taxable, non-reportable stipend that does not affect current benefits or services one may already have or have in the future, there is also travel reimbursement, supplemental accidental and liability insurance, professional development and recognition. Call them today! #volunteer #giveback
