Dear Neighbors:
With the COVID-19 pandemic, one of the most affected
populations has been our seniors, who are at high risk for severe illnesses
or complications from the virus. As a result, many of our seniors are
advised not to leave their homes, so they might not be able to access the
services and resources they need, or feel increasingly isolated during this
pandemic.
During this time, it is critical that we reach out to our
seniors. My team and I are planning to make calls to our seniors in
District 2, and we are looking for volunteers to assist us with this
important task. The calls will serve as a way of checking in with our
neighbors to see what their needs are, and to make them feel supported. In
a time of social isolation and physical distancing, a phone call may just
be the assurance that they need to know that we are always here for them.
If you are interested in volunteering, please fill out the form here.
Once the form is complete, our office will connect with you in
the near future regarding contact information for seniors living in the
neighborhoods of District 2. You will be provided a script with information
that you can pass along helpful information to our seniors.
Please feel free to share the form with anyone you know who
may be interested. Every little step we take in reaching out to folks will
go a long way in helping to combat COVID-19!
Thank you,
Ed
