Sacred Heart Catholic Church

As members of a community, we have to look out for each other. Stepping up and lending a hand to those in need is a great way to make our neighborhood a safer and more welcoming place for everyone. For seniors with little to no relatives living nearby, navigating life’s daily challenges can be tough. Fortunately, there’s a lot you can do to help out! Here are some tips from Sacred Heart Catholic Church to inspire your generosity.

Offer Help with Financial Decision-Making

As we grow older, making difficult decisions—like those involving our finances—becomes a lot more challenging.
 

• If you know a senior who is planning a move to assisted living, help them calculate their estimated home sale proceeds.
• Offer to help a senior set up automatic banking so they don’t miss important payments.
• Show seniors how to use digital tools like EverSafe and Silvernest to help manage their money.
• Teach seniors how to avoid common financial scams.

• Volunteer for Meals on Wheels America (MWA) and deliver nutritious food to seniors in your neighborhood.
• Start a fundraising project to raise money for the Alzheimer’s Foundation of America (AFA) and help support those suffering from Alzheimer’s.
• Volunteer with Second Wind Dreams, a charity that provides educational programs to seniors.

• Provide landscaping help to seniors with limited mobility.
• Offer to run errands for seniors who can no longer drive. You can even make money doing this!
• Help seniors keep their homes clean, clutter-free, and free of hazards.

It can be really hard to navigate the challenges of aging without loved ones around to provide support. If you know seniors in your neighborhood who are on their own, reach out and offer your assistance. Your support can do a lot to improve their quality of life!

Attending church is a great opportunity for seniors to engage with the community. Offer to drive a senior neighbor with you to Sacred Heart Catholic Church. You can find mass, confession, and adoration times on our website.
