To Honor our Elders: Love Movement May 2014

"It was once said that the moral test of government is how that government treats those who are in the dawn of life, the children; those who are in the twilight of life, the elderly; and those who are in the shadows of life, the sick, the needy and the handicapped." Hubert H. Humphrey

On Saturday, May 17th, Jamila Wellness LLC coordinated a special appreciation for National Nursing Home Week. A very special "thank you" goes out to some special people at Coffee-Mate for providing employees with free iced coffee during their lunch breaks. The crew was so inspired by the work that the employees do for the seniors, that they handed out free bottles of various Coffee-Mate creamers.

Ms. Tina was remarkably instrumental in the success of the activities of this day! Thank you Tina!!

Afterwards, we brought in DJ Ugo to provide some music to the residents. It was so wonderful taht he brought in music from their eras! Student volunteers from the School for Advanced Studies also participated in the event by dancing for and with some of the residents. It was a wonderful event!!
