 <link>http://www.dosomething.org/node/61484</link>
 <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Youth Entertaining Seniors is to be an organization that will connect with Senior Citizens who live in retirement homes. Many Senior Citizens are not visited often by existing relatives, and many have no living relatives left. Therefore, it is the duty of those involved in Youth Entertaining Seniors to make these seniors feel that they are loved.&lt;/p&gt;

 <title>HOPS Program</title>
 <link>http://www.dosomething.org/node/25304</link>
 <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;p&gt;For our project we helped out with the elderly, I created a project called HOPS &amp;quot;Helping Older People Smile&amp;quot; that pairs elderly patients with high school students this past year. When have had an overcrowding number of students get involved and I am so excited next year to see what happens with the program. This program took off like wildfire and many of the patients lives have changed tremendously due to having this one person come and visit them.&lt;/p&gt;
