RSVP
RSVP volunteers at the Crawford County Housing for the Elderly, with the assistance of Janet Lubbers, raised funds to purchase Christmas gifts for students at the North Crawford Head Start Center. Volunteers will wrap each gift and arrange for delivery to the Head Start Center. Tenants raise money each year through various craft and bake sales to purchase gifts for the Head Start students for each holiday through the year, as well as their annual end of school year party. Although fundraising looked differently this year, the volunteers found a safe way to provide a Christmas gift for each student. RSVP volunteers at the Crawford and Perry County LHDC Elderly Housing enjoy their connection to local Head Start Programs. Research has also shown that the interaction between children and older adults can significantly benefit the aging community as well as benefitting the lives of young children. The Retired and Senior Volunteer Program appreciates the service of our volunteers and the difference they make in the lives of young children.
