    WOULD YOU LIKE TO BE FRIENDS WITH A PHONE PAL?

    Posted on March 25, 2021 by Griswold

    Griswold High School students would like to be your phone pal.  Phone pals are a great way to socialize and feel less isolated. It promotes intergenerational friendship by learning about each other. A phone call a week to share your stories, jokes, talents, goals or what makes you happy. This is a great program for everyone!  A once- a-week phone call can make someone’s day. If you would like to participate, please contact the Senior Center to get paired up with a student. The Senior Center is working with Michele Walworth, Capstone/ Community Service Coordinator at Griswold High School to promote a positive experience for both students and senior citizens.  CALL 860-376-2604
