Senior Celebrations was first introduced to StoryCorps by a staff member, Katy Coffee, of Plymouth Place Senior Living. She described to us that StoryCorps interviews could preserve valuable memories from senior citizens to be kept by their families and friends for generations to come.
StoryCorps’ mission is "to preserve and share humanity’s stories in order to build connections between people and create a more just and compassionate world" (StoryCorps.org). StoryCorps has national archives for storing interview recordings based in the Library of Congress.
Senior Celebrations took on the project in 2021 with our first event at Plymouth Place. As volunteers were positively influenced and inspired by the stories of Plymouth Place residents, we received outstanding support from the surrounding areas in order to accomplish several more rounds of interviews in 2022!
We look forward to the coming year to plan more interviews with Plymouth Place Senior Living residents! Fill out the form on the main page to be a volunteer!
