Marsha has a great sense of humor and wants to enjoy life. Outgoing Marsha would LOVE to be paired with a volunteer who could take her out for coffee, see a movie, or simply visit with her. After Marsha was injured, she became unable to care for herself. She is in our Guardianship program which is open to all adults with severe disabilities.
Marsha lives in a group care home in East Central Austin and would greatly benefit from having regular visits and companionship. She is 35 years old and wants to get the most out of life.
YOU could change her life in only 2 hours per month. Become a Guardian Advocate. You create your schedule and we provide the training.
Marsha is waiting.
