Program Description
Event Details
AGES 13 AND UP. Looking for a way to serve and volunteer as a family? We’ve got the perfect project for you! Join us as we assemble memory care “fidget mats” serving memory care residents in the community. These fidget mats have been shown to provide calming benefits to those experiencing anxiety and restlessness in their Alzheimer’s and dementia journey. We will be assembling beads, buckles, buttons, and ribbons to be sewn onto no-sew fleece mats, which will then be distributed to local memory care facilities. The kick-off for the service project will be June 14, but please see the library calendar for future exact dates and times if necessary to complete the project. Service hours will be given for middle and high schoolers.
