Turn Free Time into Meaningful Connections

There is no time like the present to turn your free time into meaningful connections with a neighbor who is blind and socially isolated. We all know what it is like to be home, alone or lonely when there is no place to go and no one to go with - you can make a meaningful change by taking a friend shopping, around the block for a walk or to the corner for a coffee. Just an hour or two per week can make all the difference, and it is so EASY!
