SGC Admin Moon Phase: Current Sun Sign:

New Moon March 11 2013

The moon in Aries can be impulsive and bold. Some of us may feel more energetic than usual if this is the case use your energy wisely, but be aware of jumping to conclusions or into situation before knowing all the facts… :) 

This can be a great time to begin new projects, especially ones that are “me” related… or to bring about a change for the better in your present situation… 

For those who may be shy or find it difficult to speak up… use this time (with the moon in Aries) to be your own “hero”…

Volunteers needed to keep Seniors independent in Durham…

SGC Admin: 

The Community Care Durham Transportation program is looking for Volunteers…

This fabulous program assists seniors to stay in their homes and remain independent for as long as they wish or need to.

Many seniors have to give up their driver’s license at some point, and there are others who never had one to begin with and have always relied on a spouse to get out and about.

 It is difficult enough to adjust to living without your best friend to begin with,  is it fair to add in a residential change too? Staying in the home you are familiar with is very important to some of us, and doesn’t add to society’s cost, so it’s a good thing. But it can be very difficult to accomplish if one is unable to get out and about to go to the  doctor, shops and pharmacy. 

With The Community Care Durham Transportation program, volunteer driver’s get rid of the biggest hurdle for our seniors in their “fight” to remain independent. Drivers are paired up with those who need them and our seniors get out and about and have the added delight of chatting with their drivers and potentially creating positive, lasting relationships… :) 

Volunteers are sorely needed for this program as it grows, if you have been waiting for the chance to help someone out and learn from them at the same time, this might be the program for you… :)

If interested please contact 905 985 0150 ext 245 or visit Community Care Durham
