Elderly Need More Help

Online, April 9, 2010 (Newswire.com) - Why are seniors' needs greater now? With the economy down, family and citizens who used to donate funds cannot and there have been government cutbacks. Does that mean that elders should be left out in the cold . . . literally?

I don't think so, says Pinkerton.

The biggest problem: "Most people are unaware or in denial. We don't want to acknowledge that our elders need help.

So I'm raising awareness of how easy it is to help. If more people would give $5 or 1 hour a month to their local senior center, that would make a huge difference.
