Older Americans Month It is a time to celebrate the con tributions of senior volunteers such as the Foster Grandparents Program and encourage others to follow their lead. Many of the 77 seniors in the Fos ter Grandparents program work one- on-one to help children at risk in schools. They volunteer their servic es at non-profit agencies in our com munity. Last Year the program pro vided over 59.(XX) hours of service throughout Clark County. “We have an educated, healthy, active group of seniors. If their poten tial is tapped, there is no limit to what they can do.” says Claudia Dalton, Foster Grandparent Program coordi nator. Seniors earn a tax-exem pt sti pend of $2.45. Seniors say their self-esteem is increased and they get a renew ed feeling of health and vigor. Dalton expects the program to grow as studies show that over the next century seniors will outnumber children and youth. Seniors will spend possibly a third of their lives in post retirement, freeing up significant amounts of time for volunteer activ ities.
