Review for Missoula Aging Services, Missoula, MT, USA
When I lost my job at 59 I spent a long time searching for another. I applied for every kind of job but had no luck at getting one. One day my friend said she had heard on the public radio station that Missoula Aging Services needed volunteers. I was getting close to my 60th birthday so I decided to check it out. I talked to Alicia and was told about the Senior Companion program. I applied and was accepted and went to training soon after my intake. It was a life saver for me. That was 6 years ago. I switched to the Foster Grandparent Program and for the last few years worked at Franklin School. I have made good friends with other seniors. I appreciate all contact I have had with Missoula Aging Services.
JoAnn, we've been so grateful to have you as a Senior Corps volunteer! Thank you for your service and your encouraging words.
