About Above & Beyond Leadership & Education

OUR SITUATION

In American nursing homes over half of elders are experiencing loneliness and 30% are diagnosed with depression.

OUR MISSION

Our group of supportive and resilient high school students has the goal of tending to and caring for the elderly. We want to spread awareness because this issue is rampant across America and is often overlooked. Furthermore, we want to ensure that the elderly feel valued and understood.

WHAT WE DO

We travel to nearby nursing homes and care for the elderly. We design engaging games to aid with motor skill functions while also giving them companionship to look forward to. We also create meaningful artwork with inspirational quotes to help with the loneliness epidemic.
