Testimonials

"If we measure the impact of CC@H only in numbers, we miss the true value of what we do. It is not the numbers but the immeasurable impact of simple human interaction. It is the friendships that are forged, the peace of mind from knowing there is assistance available, and the feeling that we are connected to and part of a caring community that colors and enriches our lives. It is priceless.”
    —Peggy Mercorella, Chair, CC@H


[Friendships] are definitely a byproduct [of our work] and one that we hoped for, but it's something we couldn't have predicted. A lot of networks have been built.”

On Our Shared Interest Groups:
“I’m happy to report that our [Men’s Book Group] meetings have been quite enjoyable, not just for the camaraderie in our discussions, but also for the terrific books we read and discuss.”

“If you want to add variety and social contact in your life, become a volunteer with CC@H. It is very fulfilling. You meet different people, and the gratitude and appreciation you receive is worth a lot…. It is not a heavy lift, just a few hours a month, and I am usually able to fill the request in a time that works.”
    —Lou, Volunteer

“It has been an honor and a privilege to be part of the CC@H. From lively interest groups to incredibly dedicated volunteers, to my front row seat to our fascinating Speakers Series, it was evident early in my tenure that CC@H is a unique and special community.”
