Caregivers are superheroes! At the Caregiver Support Initiative, we work hard to provide the resources caregivers need to take care of their loved one. This infographic illustrates the ways caregivers should take care of themselves.

2020 was an unconventional year and with that came the question "How do we recognize our amazing volunteers for all that they do?" Our answer to this question i...s to create a video not only to recognize the hard work and dedication our volunteers give to the community, but to also say "Thank you" on behalf of our care receivers and staff. Thank you to all of our amazing volunteers for truly embodying our Neighbors Helping Neighbors slogan, and for making such an impact during the COVID-19 pandemic. #ThankYou #VolunteerRecognition #Volunteering #BuffaloNY #MakeADifference #Grateful
