The holidays are a time of joy for many people – but when you’re alone, it can be hard to find that cheerful feeling.
Holiday isolation is a real problem for many older Americans. However, there are ways you can guard against this problem in yourself and for others. Preparing ahead of time and reaching out can ensure you and those around you have the companionship they need to enjoy the holidays.
- Reach Out: Call or video chat with family and friends. Let loved ones know you’d enjoy their company.
- Community Events: Attend local holiday gatherings, senior center activities, or faith-based celebrations.
- Volunteer: Helping others can create meaningful connections and bring a sense of purpose.
- Join Groups: Explore hobby clubs, exercise classes, or book groups to meet new people.
- Plan Ahead: Schedule visits or virtual events to stay engaged and look forward to the season.
With a little effort, the holidays can be a time of connection and warmth.
Help The Seniors Center Protect the Future of Social Security
The Seniors Center is committed to finding solutions to strengthen and protect the Social Security Trust Fund. Social Security is a contract between citizens and the government. Money deposited in the Trust Fund should only be used to pay benefits to eligible recipients.
The Seniors Center is demanding Congress finally put a stop to the careless borrowing and spending by greedy politicians that has put our Trust Fund and our secure retirement in jeopardy.
At The Seniors Center, our goal is to help seniors, and we’re doing that by protecting the future of Social Security. Retirees shouldn’t have to worry about losing their hard-earned benefits to taxes or the agendas of greedy politicians. If you agree, we invite you to sign our petition today! And follow The Seniors Center on Twitter and Facebook for more updates!
