Intergenerational Storytelling on Father's Day
On this Father's Day, let's help seniors share their stories and feel truly heard. 💗
We're looking for volunteers to be compassionate listeners for seniors who want to share their life stories, memories, and wisdom. Some seniors will come with family members, but many will be paired with caring volunteers who will give them the gift of being heard.
How you can help:
Welcome participants and create a warm atmosphere
Serve as an engaged, caring listener for seniors' stories
Help guide gentle conversations using simple prompts
Assist with creating simple keepsakes for participants
The day:
2:00 PM: Welcome and introductions
2:10 PM: Quick orientation on being a great listener
2:20 PM: Story sharing sessions
3:00 PM: Closing circle
3:45 PM: Present story keepsakes to participants
There'll be free ice cream🍦 and live piano music 🎹 to make it feel special.
Come help us create an afternoon where every senior's story matters and they leave feeling truly heard.
If you'd like to volunteer at 11am instead, sign up here!
This event is curated by Storia: Your personal family historian that helps you deepen your connection to your loved one and preserve their wisdom through heartfelt storytelling.
