My Nonprofit Reviews

After I retired and my husband passed away I needed something to occupy my time. I became a prep-cook for our Senior Center. I enjoyed being with all the wonderful people I met there, until a health problem occurred and retired. A year later when I knew more about my health problem I became a caregiver for a lovely lady for 2 years I took care of her before she passed away. During this time I met a wonderful lady from Missoula Aging Service and she introduced me to the Senior Companion Program. I became a Senior Companion and have 10 Seniors that have given me the will to go on. I feel I have the greatest family anyone can have. Through this program I am also a RSVP volunteer. Missoula Aging Services ( AmeriCorps) has been a lifesaver for me.

Being a Senior Companion the last few months has enriched my life and I hope it has also enriched my clients. I have become more focused and organized since I joined the program. I have met so many nice and helpful people and I just hope I am making a difference in their lives also.
