I n honor of their 15th Anniversary in business Comfort Keepers® of Genesee County is distributing Valentine's Day cards to Seniors in our areas.

Burton, MI   - As part of an outreach program called Comforting Cards™, local elementary students will be distributing homemade Valentine's Day cards to local Seniors in Genesee County.  This program seeks to bridge the generational gap between children and seniors by having local children create Valentine cards which are then given to seniors.

Many area seniors are home or facility bound and may not have family living in the area. As a way to lift their spirits and connect them with the younger generation, Comfort Keepers, a local in-home care provider, developed Comforting Cards as part of an initiative to connect the two generations and foster a sense of well being and appreciation.

Comfort Keepers provided students with cards, crayons and decorative items and encouraged them to draw and color their own art for the recipient.
"We hope with this program to put a smile on both seniors and the children's faces," said Al Jones from Comfort Keepers. "For many of these seniors this will be the only card they receive."

Comfort Keepers provides non-medical home and facility care to seniors throughout Genesee County and surrounding areas. They provide services such as transportation, medication reminders, companionship, meal preparation and personal assistant services such as Alzheimer's care, grooming assistance and incontinence care.
