Seniors Helping Hand


This organization is under construction.  The philosophy of this organization stems from my youth.  I would be sure that I visit my grandparents weekly and during a snow storm be sure that they were shoveled out even if I had to walk through two feet of snow 3 miles to do it.  Then years later, after my grandmother passed, my grandfather’s health started to fail and a nursing home was eminent. I researched the states services, got legal advice, and asset protection advice so that my grandfather’s assets were protected and he was put at ease that he would be able to help out his loved ones after he passes.  I am developing an organization that will link multiple agencies to do the same for other seniors, hire volunteers to assist seniors in their daily needs and asset protection, as well as fundraising for all the above and  lower income senior housing needs.
