Perfect Pair Intergenerational connections are important for our health, wellness, and awareness and appreciation of the changing world. Stop by to learn more about Perfect Pair, a free program run through the University of Michigan that creates oneon-one connections between seniors and college students. Student volunteers and senior participants are paired based on similar hobbies and interests. Through shared laughs, conversation, and fun activities, members will have the opportunity to foster meaningful and long-lasting relationships with their Perfect Pair. Poetry & Short Story Readings are a new monthly activity where residents can share their poetry or short stories that they have written or one that has moved them during a particular moment. We have many talented residents; this activity will allow us all to express ourselves in prose and share experiences. Don't miss out on participating in or being in the audience for Poetry Slams on July 21st, August 18th, and September 15th!
