We feel it a high privilege to gain the trust of a senior. We join with a senior in their lives just where the senior is at the moment. Walking with them, accepting in a non-judgmental fashion the ups and downs of each life, ensures that the senior begins to be empowered to handle the huge changes that are occurring in their 60's, 70's, 80's, and even 90's.


Adopt-A-Grandparent is an Atlanta-based, non-profit program that provides a way for generations to come together. We match adult volunteers looking for companionship with older citizens who are alone and often friendless. Since 1978, Adopt-A-Grandparent has matched more than 1,000 seniors with volunteers.

The Adopt-A-Grandparent Program seeks to enhance the lives of seniors through Companionship, Health and Wellness, Community Involvement and Spiritual Growth and Healing producing empowered, healthy, laughter-prone individuals.
