Helping the Elderly through Music
Sharing the Joys of Music
Music can help forge bonds and unite people, which, given the loneliness and isolation many seniors feel in elderly care homes, is especially important for the elderly. Music can also help mitigate the effects of dementia and depression, two more conditions that the elderly commonly face. So I set out on a mission to volunteer performing for seniors in senior homes, to help both them and I make new bonds and forge new connections, and help them with their dementia, isolation, and much more.
The purpose of this website is to encourage everyone to volunteer sharing whatever musical or other artistic talents they may have with elderly at nursing homes, and to help people figure out where to volunteer and what steps need to be taken in order to begin volunteering.
