“Where do I begin to describe how important “My Friend’s Place” has been in our lives?”
Greetings,
My Friend’s Place is a small, non-profit dementia day-care program. We are blessed to serve those who have Alzheimer’s or other memory loss issues. We provide a specialized day program where laughter and friendship truly are the “best medicine.” It is a safe, interactive experience where participants can enjoy a non- judgmental environment. Our program provides much needed respite for family members and other care partners. My friend’s Place is a much needed, one-of –a- kind program in our region.
Our program is unique, since our staff is comprised of many very dedicated volunteers who have a passion for this work and are the backbone of our program. There are only 3 salaried part-time positions responsible for administrative details. Our goal is to keep the program as affordable as possible, so we depend greatly on donations and volunteers.
Each day starts with tea, coffee and snacks, as we sit around a table together for socializing, much like our participants enjoyed before their diagnosis. It is a sad reality: when a person with dementia loses the ability to carry-on routine conversations, they often become socially isolated.
-We need your help !-
Just once a year we reach out with this appeal. Our goal is to raise $8000. All funds received will be used to help provide arts and craft supplies, music events, special snacks, entertainment, and administrative costs.
Would you be willing to provide a donation to help support our mission? No donation is too small! Thank you for your support !
There is a donate tab on our website WWW.Myfriendsplaceprogram.com , or you may make checks payable to My Friend’s Place.
Blessings,
Lisa L Jordan,
