Do you like to take morning walks, and would you like a little company while you're out and about? Then become a walking buddy with a senior in San Francisco's North Beach! We have a male member with Parkinson's who would like a walking partner for an hour, once a week, before 10:00AM. This position doesn't require experience with Parkinson's because he can keep up with a normal pace in the morning. If you'd like to be a walking partner to a terrific senior, we're looking for you! What better way to start the day than by taking a walk with a new friend near Washington Square? You'll get fresh air and exercise, enjoy the scenery, and help a senior all at the same time. Please contact us at molly@nextvillagesf.org if you'd like more information or would like to help!! You'll be glad you did.
