Mission Statement
Little Brothers-Friends of the Elderly (LBFE) is a nonprofit organization, composed primarily of volunteers, devoted to relieving isolation and loneliness among elderly.
About This Cause
The LBFE motto, “flowers before bread” reflects our belief that the pleasures which make life worth living are as important to the human spirit as is bread to the body. Our services include: Visiting Volunteer Program, Holiday Events and Initiatives, Seasonal Outings, Birthday Visits, Monthly Programming (Art Group, Card Club, Wild Wednesdays, “Third Thursdays”, and Movie Night) and an On-Call/Emergency Assistance Program which are all designed to relieve isolation and loneliness among the elderly and to assist them in living quality lives. The holiday season is often the loneliest time of the year for elderly without family and friends. On Easter, Thanksgiving and Christmas Day our elderly friends are visited by volunteers who bring a home cooked dinner with all the trimmings plus a bouquet of flowers. LBFE also hosts celebrations on site, a safe and fun space for our elderly friends to engage in socialization and companionship. It is important to note that our services are free of charge to our elderly friends and we operate solely on grant and private donations. Thank you for helping us drive the LBFE mission forward!
