From Client to Cherished Volunteer

In 1990 when Kerrie-Ann needed a place to land, she met 80-year old Josephine and ElderHelp. “She was like a surrogate grandmother to me, and ElderHelp’s HomeShare program just clicked for us,” shares Kerrie-Ann, “and I met my husband of 29 years when he was a guest at her dinner table!”

Fast forward to 2021 and Kerrie-Ann is celebrating 17 years of volunteer service–including five years as a board member. As a disabled US Navy veteran she’s “always looking to support ElderHelp as I believe in its mission. My grandparents had to move late in life, and I saw first-hand how tough that was. It’s an honor to give back to those who have given so much.”
