Full Description: 

Join us as we discuss our work. The Luella Hannan Memorial Foundation believes that caring for our elders is a central value of our community. Therefore, Hannan’s mission is to enhance the quality of life for senior citizens in Metropolitan Detroit – with a focus on the City of Detroit – by identifying their unmet physical, social and financial needs and maintaining facilities and creating programs that both address these needs and preserve the dignity of seniors. This workshop will focus on two community collaboratives: (1) The Detroit Griot Partnership's year-long oral history project titled "Volunteering in Detroit: Seniors Make the Motor City Run", and (2) Hannan's participation as a senior-led community distribution site for the Fresh Food Share program, providing fresh, locally grown produce for our community.
