Kid Caregivers, Part 2

Suzanne Newman talks with 14-year-old Hailey Richman from Long Island, New York. Hailey is executive director for two non-profit organizations that help seniors. In this segment, Hailey talks more about Kid Caregivers, which grew from a blog to Zoom calls, meets with guidance counselors, and Puzzle Time where kids can volunteer to help seniors solve puzzles. They are now in almost all 50 states. People can become ambassadors in their state to take a leadership role in finding volunteers. Some high school students volunteer weekly or monthly. Kids bond with the seniors, making an inter-generational connection that can touch people's lives just by solving a puzzle together. Support the cause by donating or volunteering to help get puzzles into facilities that don't have a lot of resources.
