Dear Friends,
If you can spend a few hours ONCE a month visiting elderly living alone and chit chatting with them, pls let myself or Steven know of your interest & goodwill. You can bring your friends or family members (including children) for this visit and the main duties include:
- visit and chat with the elderly ONCE a month on a weekend.
- Duration: 10am till 1pm.
- bring elderly for haircut once a month.
- bring them for a breakfast or lunch.
- remind them to visit doctor if they have a medical appointment.
- if you can, bring him/her out for a short walk etc
- Duration: 10am till 1pm.
- bring elderly for haircut once a month.
- bring them for a breakfast or lunch.
- remind them to visit doctor if they have a medical appointment.
- if you can, bring him/her out for a short walk etc
You will be placed in a team of volunteers where you and your friends (one subgroup) and other subgroups will take turn to visit the elderly weekly (thus each subgroup will only need to commit once a month).
As our population ages & the birth rate declining, there will be more elderly living alone with no companion or children. Your presence can mean so much to them and bring much joy to their lives, so thank you very much for your time and kindness.
Kudos to my hero, Steven, for coming out with this wonderful initiative !
