Anchor Place Respite - Many Ways to Help

Starting next week, Anchor Place plans to be open two days a week - Monday and Thursday from 10-2 - and offer a range of activities plus lunch for $55/day.

There are ways we can all help with this organization as it welcomes older adults living with mild-to-moderate memory issues and other cognitive challenges, and gives their caretakers a few hours each week to rest and recharge.  For starters, we can spread the word about this resource. In addition, Anchor Place is looking for:

  • Golf umbrellas
  • Poker chips 
  • Small costume pieces - like hats and masks
  • Magazines from the 50s, 60s and 70s
  • A small printer
  • A first aid kit (very specific need - contact Anchor Place if you'd like to buy this)
  • Scholarships - to be sure Anchor Place can offer respite to those who might not otherwise afford it.

We'll be sharing more as this initiative grows. In the meantime, you can check out the Anchor Place Respite Dunwoody website.
