Winter Crafts + Snacks with Seniors

WHAT TO EXPECT:

Let's bring some kindness + friendship to the residents at Villa Hermosa! Kid Volunteers will work alongside their new "grandfriends" to create a winter-themed craft + enjoy a snack together.

WHY IS THIS WORK IMPORTANT:

This hands-on volunteer work will benefit Villa Hermosa Retirement Community.

Did you know that social isolation + loneliness in senior citizens leads to a 50% risk in developing dementia and other serious health conditions*? Providing seniors with social interactions with others (especially interactions with kids!) and a sense of purpose can reduce the negative health impacts of feeling alone.

KIND NOTES:

This is an indoor and in-person volunteer project.

Given COVID numbers + the vulnerability of the residents, masks are required to be worn. We will let you know ahead of time so you can be prepared.

All supplies will be provided.

Stay tuned for additional details to help you prepare for the day!

WHY YOU'LL BE ASKED TO PAY A FAMILY REGISTRATION FEE:

Our small family registration fee enables Crafting Kind Kids, a 501(c)(3) organization, to offset volunteer costs for this event. These fees are non-refundable. If you have to cancel your registration later, please know that your fee will go toward our efforts to create more give-back kindness projects for our kids, families + non-profit partners.

KIND NOTE: If you would like to participate in a Crafting Kind Kids family volunteer event + need assistance covering the registration fee, please email us: [email protected]. We will handle the registration fee. We want volunteering to be accessible to all. ♥
