This summer, Aging Matters in Brevard is reaching out to local residents for help in making a significant difference in their community. Established in 1965, this nonprofit organization serves the elderly and disabled citizens of Brevard County, and they are currently seeking volunteers aged 18 and older for their essential programs, including the Brevard Community Kitchen and Meals on Wheels. If you have just a few hours to spare each week, your contribution could change lives.
The Brevard Community Kitchen is a lifeline for many, serving over 2,000 meals each day to some of the most vulnerable members of our community, including seniors and at-risk children. Tom Kammerdener, the Program Director, highlights the critical role that volunteers play, saying, “We rely on volunteers so we can feed as many people as possible. Their service is vital to our program and truly saves lives.”
Edna Zurawinski, a dedicated volunteer with Aging Matters for over 12 years, initially joined as a Meals on Wheels driver. Now, she contributes her time to the bulk mail team. She shares, “I love being a part of the Aging Matters in Brevard volunteer team in such a meaningful way and am pleased to assist seniors in our community.”
In Brevard County, where the median age is 48.5 and a significant portion of the population is elderly, the mission of Aging Matters is more important than ever. Volunteers can help promote independence and enhance quality of life for seniors, making a real, positive impact in local neighborhoods.
If you’re interested in joining the Aging Matters in Brevard volunteer team this summer, please call (321) 636-9901 for more information. Together, we can ensure that no one in our community goes hungry and that our seniors feel valued and supported.
