JOE FREITAS

VOLUNTEER SPOTLIGHT

Whether working behind the scenes on SalesForce or introducing “Alexa” to a visually impaired senior, Joe Freitas does it with humility and joy. Logging over 2,000 volunteer hours, Joe’s expertise as a software engineer connects the hearts and souls of seniors to the wonderful world of technology. We can’t wait to share his story with you!

JOANN FROST

CYNTHIA HANSEN CLIENT SPOTLIGHT

With an adventurous spirit and positive outlook, JoAnn lives life to its fullest, thanks to a team of trusted ElderHelp volunteers. Despite declining vision, she enjoys rock-climbing, cycling, and water-skiing, but mostly she enjoys confidently living in her home—filled with memories and love. “I don’t know when the final curtain will fall on my eyesight,” JoAnn shares. “I want to capture each moment and put it to memory for the time when I can’t do it anymore.”
