STEERING COMMITTEEWe have an elected group at the senior center that serves on the steering committee. These dedicated people give of their time to make decisions about the senior center. The meetings are open to anyone. Join us as we make the center a better place for everyone. The next meeting is at 10 a.m. March 25 at the senior center.

THE GIFT OF TIMEToo many of our older and disabled neighbors are lonely and isolated. They long for just a brief visit now and then from someone who will take the time to sit and chat. Other families in our community are struggling to take care of a loved one at home. For these full-time caregivers, a break to run errands, go to their own doctor’s appointments or relax for an hour is often impossible because their parent or spouse cannot be left alone. If you have a few hours, once or twice a month, to visit or sit with an older or disabled adult, your gift of time will make a massive difference for our lonely and struggling neighbors. No hands-on or nursing experience is needed.

For more information, call the Interfaith Volunteer Caregivers at

586-757-5551.

RED CROSS BLOOD DRIVE

An American Red Cross blood drive takes place 1:30-7:30 p.m. April 23. Appointments are preferred to ensure adequate staffing for the blood drive.

Please call 586-739-7540 to make an appointment.The next drive will be Thursday, June 25.
