🌟 This #OlderAmericansMonth, we're inspired by CJ Matthews, founder of @Blankies4mybuddiesfoundation, whose empowering youth to be changemakers! Recently, they hosted a #MakingChange workshop where eager young hearts signed up to craft art and blankets for local seniors, spreading warmth and joy in their community. 💖

CJ, recognized as a #DailyPointofLight Award honoree in 2022 and Points of Light Ambassador, exemplifies how volunteering bridges divides, uniting people of all ages and backgrounds to foster a shared sense of purpose and community understanding.
