A
website I enjoy as both a non-traditionally aged parent and a
senior interested in remaining savvy and social is
“Grandparents.com.” The site maintains that “our goal is to
connect and inspire today's families. As the Trusted Resource for
Grandparents, we strengthen the ties between family members,
promoting well-being and giving timely information and expert advice
on what really matters to you, from health and money, to travel and
retirement. Our stories and videos celebrate the role of
grandparents, and encourage you to tell your story, passing on a
meaningful legacy to your children and grandchildren,” and they do
a comprehensive job.
I
first logged on when seeking resources for an inquiry into
volunteering opportunities for Baby Boomers and discovered their
initiative to engage seniors via their “Grand Corps,” an
internet clearinghouse of volunteer opportunities across the nation.
Once on the site, I stayed to explore the more than 50 resource
portals that encompass information about grand kids, family and
relationships, work and money, food and leisure, health, marketplace
deals, games, advice and much more! The contests and give-ways
section is always fun to share one's dreams with, and “5 Things I
Learned This Week” covers random, but always provocative topics I
look forward to browsing.
So
sign on and take a look. The Community section has some good
conversation this morning!
