Mission

Little Brothers - Friends of the Elderly is a national network of non-profit volunteer-based organizations committed to relieving isolation and loneliness among the elderly. We offer to people of goodwill the opportunity to join the elderly in friendship and celebration of life.

About

Visiting program: Staff and volunteers alleviate the loneliness of isolated elders by visiting them one on one, in person and on the phone. Elders and their visitors may do activities together like going out for lunch, working on a craft project, going to a ball game, or just sharing a cup of coffee and talking. They build meaningful friendships that make a difference.
