ORGANIZATION: FamilyMeans

Some of the greatest stories you will ever hear come from an elder. They have lived a full life, but for many of them, that life and their memories of it are fading. There are life moments they have experienced that many of their children, grandchildren, friends and even spouses and siblings never knew about them.

If you like to listen, write and enjoy spending time with a person then let's make that match. You don't need to be a professional writer, but you do need to want to preserve those moments in time that may soon be gone. I'm confident it will also enrich your life.
