| During National Volunteer Week, Students from St.
Joseph’s High School commemorated National Volunteer
Week by visiting our residents. The girls in the school
are part of the New York chapter of National GlamourGals,
Inc. a voluntary, not for profit organization. Its goal
is to organize teens to visit nursing homes where they
give residents complimentary makeovers, hand massages
and manicures. While they are dispensing their beauty
aids and tips they form relationships with the elderly.
Our residents enjoyed the visit from the young and exuberant
GlamourGals. Accompanied by their teacher Julia Porter,
they visit Cobble Hill approximately once a month and
bring their beauty services to various units and the
Recreation Room. More than 20 residents waited with
excitement for their visit on Saturday. This time the
girls brought along a reporter from NY1 who interviewed
GlamourGals’ President, Rachel Doyle as well as
some of our residents. |
