When you see #fireWorks this July 4th, or enjoying a cookout with #friends, think of #FriendshipWorks and invite a neighbor or someone in your community that might need the social connection. In observance of the holiday, FriendshipWorks will be closed July 3 & 4.

Happy #FathersDay from #FriendshipWorks! Celebrate all the amazing #Dads and #father figures in your life. And remember to reach out to those older adults in your neighborhood who many not have family nearby and help bring more joy and companionship to elders.

SHARE A TWEET about you and your “bestie”. Why? Saturday is International Friendship Day! It represents the importance of having friends at every age, and is at the root of what we do at FriendshipWorks.
