Project Linus

Senior Centers & Social · Texas · Free

Volunteer program that makes blankets for children — popular among senior crafters. Useful for seniors who've lost a spouse, retired recently, or moved to a new city and need new community. Online classes (Senior Planet, GetSetUp, AARP) cover technology, fitness, and topics on demand — many are free. Intergenerational programs (volunteering with kids, mentoring) consistently improve mood and cognition in older adults. No cost to older adults or the people helping them.
