Seniors Helping Seniors sponsored by X Press Printing Services, Inc.
The Seniors Helping Seniors (SHS) program sponsored by X Press Printing Services,, Inc. was founded in 2007 by two PSL students who wanted to connect high school seniors with senior citizens in the Perry area in need of support and friendship.
Traveling in pairs, students in the SHS program visit the homes of Perry area senior citizens who have applied for assistance. Student volunteers attempt to improve the living conditions of elderly residents by assisting them with everyday maintenance and common repairs (i.e. painting, cleaning windows, removing/installing window screens, trash removal, light bulb replacement, general clean-up, etc.). Students in the SHS program may also read mail to seniors who are visually impaired or run errands for seniors who are physically impaired (i.e. grocery store, recycling drop-off, etc.). Please note, that due to the limited numbers of volunteers we are unable to perform yard work/snow removal at this time. Above all, SHS volunteers are asked to provide companionship, a helping hand, and serve as reliable friends who check in with senior citizens on a regular basis. If you or somenone you know is interested in participating in the Seniors Helping Seniors program, please complete the form below. If you have questions, email us at [email protected]
