Helping Seniors Extend Fixed Incomes
The Good Shepherd partners with the Department of Social Services, Seniors First, nursing homes, home health providers, and parish nurses to provide care packages for seniors. Care packages may include personal hygiene items, cleaning supplies, toilet paper, and paper towels.
"This program has been a blessing for me. I am disabled on a walker and unable to get to the store and on a limited income. This has really helped on getting through the end of the month. I really appreciate this extra help very much. Thanks again for doing this for me and so many others."
