The students entertained residents by serving cake and refreshments, and handed out specially made Valentines. In addition, students played card games with the residents and also interviewed them about their lives. One of the residents talked about going to school in a one room schoolhouse with children from multiple grades in the same room.

 

The residents enjoyed the afternoon interacting with the friendly and curious students from MPowering Kids. 

 

“We are happy that the students of MPowering Kids could put a smile on the faces of so many.” said Susan Marshall, Founder of MPowering Kids. “Teaching our students the importance of giving back to the community is an integral component of MPowering Kids, and we are certain that both the students and the residents of The Bristal Assisted Living facility found great joy in their visit together.”
