Good Monday Morning Everyone!
I hope everyone had a great weekend!
I just wanted to do a friendly email reminder to request your assistance in contacting Senator’s Carl Levin and Debbie Stabenow today and to please voice your opinion to not cut Senior Corps (Senior Companion, Foster Grandparent and RSVP Programs) from the 2011 Budget. Remember Senior Corps is under the umbrella of Corporation for National and Community Service (CNCS) and that complete program was voted by the House of Representatives to be eliminated yet this year!
Everyone is asked to call their Senators AGAIN. Please note that call-in volume is measured by those calling the toll-free call-in service at 855-877-3783 or 855-US-SERVE. Please use this number only to call. You'll be patched directly through to your Senator.
It is sufficient to simply call your Senator and say: "I am calling to ask Senator Levin or Stabenow to support Senior Corps and vote NO on any proposal to eliminate funding for Senior Corps.”
On behalf of the Senior Volunteer Programs of NW Michigan, I really appreciate your support and action taken for our programs.
Take care,
Douglas Durand, Assistant Program Director

I heard this program before I thought it doesn't exist. But now I believed and it's true and it's working. Senior Companion is a great idea for a busy people like me. I'm planning that someone will take good care of my grand parents.
ReplyDeleteHello Friends,
ReplyDeleteReally, it is a nice blog. The Senior Companion Program provides people age 55 and older the opportunity to provide assistance and friendship to elderly persons who are home-bound and often living alone. Thanks a lot.
