SPEAKER-LIZ SHRIER, CANOPY OF NEIGHBORS

Canopy of Neighbors

It is a newly created not for profit company in our area (14222 and 14209) based off of the "Village to Village Movement." The original NFP originated in Beacon Hill area of Boston, MA about 10 years ago to help seniors in their homes who may be experiencing issues relating to isolation, injury, transportation, and nutrition. The local 501C chapter was incorporated in 2010, and our speaker Liz Shrier is on the Board and one of the incorporating members. Currently the group has 65 senior subscribers in the 14222 and 14209 zip, 50 volunteers, and 2 paid staff.
