seniors
Guided by his bond with his late Grandma, Greg has spent a lot of time with retired people. After college, he volunteered with older adults on a weekly basis and started a program that brought hundreds of other volunteers to a nursing home. When he has traveled to other cities to speak at an event or conference, he frequently has done a separate event for a nearby retirement community's residents. In some cases, he has served as 'Grandkid-in-Residence' at a community for older adults. Over the years, he has been given other fun roles involving seniors -- such as 'Grand(kid) Marshal' for the Vintage Games. When he is off the road, he has volunteered long-distance (virtually) on activities for retirement communities, senior centers, and other groups that involve older adults. SCROLL DOWN
At an event in Canada, Greg's book (The Silhouette Man) was honored as a book that celebrates the wisdom of older adults. The books have been used extensively with seniors. The books also have been used with employees who serve seniors -- as well as adults & youth who volunteer to support seniors and/or as part of intergenerational programs.
