PRINCETON, April 7, 2019
An exciting community collaboration took place at the matinee performance of “Gods of Comedy” on Sunday, March 24th. Over 100 guests of Senior Care Services of Greater Princeton were given the royal treatment at this uproarious Ken Ludwig comedy. Thanks to the generosity of Michael Rosenberg, the new Managing Director of McCarter, and his tireless staff, Senior Care Services’ elderly, homebound clients, aided by the organization’s dedicated volunteers, enjoyed a festive afternoon excursion. McCarter generously provided space in the west lobby for Senior Care Services to host a pre-performance reception to welcome the seniors and express appreciation to the loyal volunteers for all they do.
“This delightful collaboration was the product of McCarter’s expanded outreach to the community under Michael Rosenberg,” says Clare Smith, Executive Director of Senior Care Services of Greater Princeton. “It was so wonderful to see all the smiling faces of our clients, volunteers and special donors – the feeling of the greater community of Princeton in the room was palpable,” Smith added.
Senior Care Services of Greater Princeton engages volunteers to assist homebound seniors to age gracefully in place and to preserve their independence by providing medical transportation, food shopping and friendly visits. The flexibility of the volunteer opportunities available at the organization draws people from all walks of life, many of whom work full-time. Some volunteers serve clients an hour a month while others serve an hour a week. Volunteers, as well as client referrals, are always welcome.
