Our vision is to promote positive intergenerational relationships and eliminate negative stereotypes that stand in the way of enjoyable and profound connections between seniors and young people.
Through the Better Together program, RSS members, in collaboration with the Kinneret Day School, explore positive relationships with sixth grade students, participate in mutually enjoyable senior and student-led activities and work together to eliminate stereotypes and ageism.
RSS has a long-standing partnership with the Kinneret Day School. Our neighbors next door visit on a monthly basis for our Grand Parenting Program with the second graders.
The Horace Mann School has developed their Service Learning Team which has enhanced the lives of our members through various programs and the development of our community garden. RSS members have enriched the lives of the students by sharing their expertise and life experience.
