Studies show that volunteering is good for the body and mind, as well as good for the community. Older adults can bring experience, skills and talent as volunteers, and benefit from the social interaction and training opportunities.
In our newest Aging Insights, Joyce Campbell (CEO of the Trenton Area Soup Kitchen), Lynne Toye (Executive Director, NJ Arts & Culture Renewal Fund) and Julia Gallanty (Interim CEO of the NJ YMCA State Alliance) discuss the importance, benefits and power of volunteering for older adults.
We hope you accept their challenge to start the new year with a resolution to volunteer!
