Volunteers sought The volunteer nursing home outreach program, Grow- ing Relationships and Making Memories, is seeking vol- unteers to form relationships with socially isolated nursing home residents. Many nursing home residents have no one to visit them. Similar to a Big Brother/Big Sister philosophy, GRAMM builds individual relationships through activities such as sharing stories, playing games, reading, watching sports/ television, sitting outside, writing letters, or just offering companionship. GRAMM is seeking volunteers who can visit one hour a week for eight weeks. The program is held at the Allendale AP exams, and offers study guides for literature, Bible, poetry, Shakespeare, mythology, best-sellers, Dr. Seuss, pre-algebra, algebra, algebra II, geometry, biology, U.S. history flashcards, DMV, and careers. Students may take full-length practice exams, and review the results with in- depth answer explanations. For more information, contact Samantha McCoy at (201) 327-4338 or mccoy@bccls.org.
