What does Prom, Kansas City Seniors and the Kansas City Shepherd Center all have in common?
Anne Fraser sits down with Terri Goddard, the Director of Resource Development at the Kansas City Shepherd's Center.
In this episode, Terri talks about her role at the Shepherd Center and how she helps bring essential resources to the organization. From special events to community outreach, Terry's work significantly impacts our community and supports the lives of older adults.
One of the highlights of this episode is a discussion about an upcoming event, "Prom with a Purpose." Terri shares her excitement about this unique event that invites everyone to relive their prom memories while supporting seniors. The funds raised from this event contribute to feeding seniors, supporting operational costs, and allowing the organization to respond to the most urgent needs throughout the year.
In addition, we delve into the Center's other programs, such as the "70 over 70" event that honors vibrant and engaging individuals over the age of 70. Terry emphasizes the importance of supporting older adults, not just by providing meals but also by creating opportunities for them to avoid loneliness and isolation.
At "Bringing Hope to Alzheimer's," we believe that interaction and relationships with seniors can be a blessing to everyone involved. So we encourage you to volunteer, contribute to this cause, and if possible, attend the "Prom with a Purpose."
