Description
Dress up in your Halloween costumes + help decorate pumpkins with our "grandfriends" at Park Avenue Heath and Rehab Center in Tucson.
Event Details
WHAT TO EXPECT:
Let's bring some spooky kindness + friendship to the residents at Park Avenue Rehab! Kid Volunteers can dress up in their Halloween costumes + decorate pumpkins with our new "grandfriends". (There may even be candy!)
WHY IS THIS WORK IMPORTANT:
This hands-on volunteer work will benefit Park Avenue Health and Rehabilitation Nursing Home.
Did you know that social isolation + loneliness in senior citizens leads to a 50% risk in developing dementia and other serious health conditions*? Providing seniors with social interactions with others (especially interactions with kids!) and a sense of purpose can reduce the negative health impacts of feeling alone.
*CDC.gov, 2021
KIND NOTES:
This is an indoor and in-person volunteer project.
Masks are required to be worn.
Any person age 8+ who is unvaccinated may need to be swabbed.
Stay tuned for additional details to help you prepare for the day!
WHY YOU'LL BE ASKED TO PAY A FAMILY REGISTRATION FEE:
Our small family registration fee enables Crafting Kind Kids, a 501(c)(3) organization, to offset volunteer costs for this event. These fees are non-refundable. If you have to cancel your registration later, please know that your fee will go toward our efforts to create more give-back kindness projects for our kids, families and non-profit partners.
KIND NOTE: If you would like to participate in a Crafting Kind Kids family volunteer event + need assistance covering the registration fee, please email us: contact@craftingkindkids.org. We will handle the registration fee. We want volunteering to be accessible to all. ♥
