Volunteer Your Time and Skills to Make a Difference with GRAMAs

In the United States, there is a growing need for volunteers to support our aging population. The number of Americans aged 65 and older is projected to nearly double from 52 million in 2018 to 95 million by 2060, according to the U.S. Census Bureau.

This aging population is leading to an increased demand for services that can help seniors live independently and with dignity. These services include everything from transportation and meal delivery to companionship and caregiving.

The Grandmothers Raising Grandchildren Association of Metropolitan Atlanta (GRAMA) is a non-profit organization that provides support to grandmothers who are raising their grandchildren. These grandmothers often face unique challenges, such as financial difficulties, housing instability, and lack of access to healthcare.

GRAMA provides these grandmothers with a variety of services, including:

• Financial assistance
• Housing assistance
• Healthcare assistance
• Childcare assistance
• Educational assistance
• Emotional support

GRAMA relies on volunteers to provide these services. Volunteers can help with everything from fundraising to tutoring to providing companionship to grandmothers and their grandchildren.
