Not Born Yesterday

Grandpas Share Experience and Get Back as Much as They Give


Listen Later

Today we are looking at the loneliness and isolation of older men. Older men often have trouble making new friends once they retire, and are often too dependent on their spouses for social interaction.   

Meet Grandpas United, a group working to involve older men in volunteering in their communities, sharing their knowledge with younger people, and finding support and meaning in their lives.  

For more information on Grandpas United you can contact them at: [email protected]
