Adopt a Grandparent Day

National Grandparents Day
Kathy Rogers founded Adopt A Grandparent Day in 2014 to recognize and honor the lives of the elderly in our society. Each year on the Saturday before National Grandparents Day, volunteers visit nursing homes across the southern six counties of Mississippi.

The Mission
The mission of the organization is to send love and affection to the elderly who may feel lonely or isolated, and this mission is very close to Kathy’s heart. She is co-founder of the organization and serves as Board of Directors President.

every life matters
In 2014 my husband and I formed Adopt a Grandparent Day. If you would invest your time and spend some time with us on Adopt a Grandparent Day you would find that they have so much to give and so much to offer.
In-Person visits are back for Adopt a Grandparent Day
As Adopt a Grandparent Day becomes a two-pronged outreach, businesses and organizations are encouraged to adopt a participating facility - which involves buying, decorating, filling and delivering treasure boxes to their facility and providing volunteers for in-person visits.
