In today's episode we interview Jacob Cramer, the founder of Love for our Elders. His motto is - It only takes 5 minutes to put a smile on someone else’s face so Jacob began making & collecting cards to mail to elders in senior communities across the globe. He started his nonprofit at 13 so they now have over 50,000 volunteers.
Jacob shares with us what inspired him at such a young age to start a nonprofit that focuses on helping the elderly. We discuss the programs that Love for our elders offers and the process for collecting and distributing the letters. We discuss some of the challenges that Jacob’s organization has faced during COVID and the bright future that lays ahead for Love for our Elders.
