Recollections:
Sharing Your Story
Recollections is a recorded storytelling service for South Shore residents designed to preserve your memories and experiences. A trained volunteer interviewer sits with you for a 45-minute conversation, recorded using an iPhone and Bluetooth microphone. The recording is made available privately via YouTube, creating a meaningful heirloom you can share however you wish. This service is offered at no cost.
Everyone has a story to tell: a grandparent thinking of their grandchildren, a retiring teacher or nurse reflecting on a career, or someone in recovery hoping their journey can help others. What’s your story?
Recollections volunteers provide this service in partnership with local senior centers or in your home, upon request. We also welcome new volunteers! Anyone can learn to interview and record - joining the Recollections team is a joyful way to connect with others and preserve the richness of our community’s stories.
Neighbors Helping Neighbors
Neighbors helping neighbors. People who need support connecting with people who can give support. We need each other and we’re not alone!
M+ Volunteers are CORI-Checked, supervised, and available to connect weekly or as needed. Volunteers are available to help with a variety of support needs:
Company and Socialization: someone with whom to take a walk, play a game, read aloud, watch TV. Helpful for people living at home and coping with loss of independence, and for people in residence at skilled-nursing, assisted, and independent living communities
Respite Support for Caregivers: someone responsible to stay and be present to your loved one while you step away for appointments and errands. Helpful for anyone managing the care of a loved one
Legacy Projects: someone to provide support and direction in letter writing, photo organizing, storytelling. Helpful for people engaged in advanced-care planning or thinking about end-of-life
Supportive Conversation: someone there just to listen. Helpful for people grieving the loss of a loved one, going through a challenging time, or simply in need of a little TLC
