Last month Peabody Home hosted its 77th Annual Meeting. Executive Director, Meg Miller, discussed the exciting and new process of Peabody Home developing a strategic plan and how their goal as an organization has always been to serve the elders of Franklin and the surrounding towns, with the best care at the most affordable price.

Miller noted the fact that New Hampshire is on the edge of the “Silver Tsunami”, the second fastest aging State in the Nation, and she asked the Corporate Members to assist in helping Peabody Home position itself to serve that increasing need.

John Benham, Board Member, also discussed the need for community volunteers and the variety of opportunities there are for individuals to participate in the lives of Peabody Home residents. Quality of life is more important as we age. The key to sustaining our youth is with continued interaction with others while enjoying activities, that as individuals, we are passionate about. Peabody Home is initiating the drive to recruit community volunteers to support our residents quality of life.

Consider becoming a volunteer, whether it’s an hour or two on a weekly, bi-weekly, or monthly basis, individual or a group activity. Volunteering is a rewarding activity for both parties involved! Please call Peabody Home for more information at 603.934.3718 or visit our Web site at peabodyhome.org.
