👁️❤️ Help Someone See the World More Clearly ❤️👁️

📅 Saturday, June 13th
🕘 Starting at 9:00 AM — please arrive early
📍 Fichte, Endl & Elmer Eyecare
6500 Porter Rd, Niagara Falls, NY

Through the incredible volunteer efforts of the doctors, technicians, and staff of Fichte Endl & Elmer Eyecare, in partnership with the Kenmorelionsclub and other clubs of the WNY Lions - New York USA, a special Pop-Up Eye Clinic is being offered to help those in need of vision care.

Do you know someone struggling to see clearly and unable to get the help they need? This could be a life-changing opportunity.

Please help us spread the word by sharing this post with friends, family, community groups, churches, schools, and anyone who may know someone in need.

Sometimes the smallest act — sharing information — can help someone see the world in a whole new way. 🌎✨

The Senior Companion Program continued to shine today! Several members attended the 22nd Annual Niagara County Senior Walk in the Park, sponsored by The Health Association of Niagara County Inc. - HANCI! They shared smiles, assistance to other attendees from Complete Senior Care - PACE and some pretty amazing dance moves! We love seeing our volunteers demonstrating what an active and kind lifestyle can do for our community! ❤️💙

Thank you to The Niagara County Department of Health for teaching our volunteers to use Narcan last week! Each participant received a Narcan Kit and valuable information to help keep themselves and others safe. We also heard about this great, EXCLUSIVELY Niagara County resource guide to keep us all healthy and prepared!

Every May since 1963, our nation has celebrated Older Americans Month—a time to honor the generations who built our communities and continue strengthening them every day.

At AmeriCorps, we’re proud to recognize the older adults whose service bridges generations, supports neighbors, and ensures no one is left behind.

Last year, more than 130,000 older Americans served as AmeriCorps and AmeriCorps Seniors Volunteers, contributing over 29 million hours of reading with children, supporting older adults, strengthening nonprofits, and reducing poverty across the country.

Their wisdom, dedication, and compassion make our communities stronger. This month, and every month, we celebrate them.
