Has Your Organization Changed Someone's Life?

June 30, 2009 in AAHSA conferences, storytelling by SarahMashburn | 2 comments

AAHSA and the readers of our FutureAge magazine want to know.

In the spirit of AAHSA’s Annual Meeting theme, I’m writing a story about what not-for-profit providers are doing to change lives.  And I don’t just mean older people. What has your organization done to transform the life of an employee, board member, student or volunteer?

Maybe you helped a CNA receive his or her nursing degree. Maybe your wellness program helped an employee lose 100 pounds. Both of these are actual examples from your peers. Now, it’s time to share your story.

Please contact contact me by July 7 if you have a life-changing story to share.

    The non-profit organization that I worked for terminated my health insurance, disability payments, and now my retirement benefits are being withheld. No one seems to care about the non profits who are not abiding by their own laws and by laws, and the seniors who are suffering because of their actions, and lack of duty of care, and duty of fairness.

    I am served by a non profit agency here in Indiana. I live alone and miss the home cooked meals from the good ole days. Having the staff bring me a meal everyday is not only feeds the body it feeds the soul. Thank you Millie.
