14 - Revel's Give Back Initiative for Little Brothers - Friends of the Elderly with Georgia Afton

Each year Revel chooses to partner with a local organization in the Twin Cities around the holiday season to help brighten the lives of those in our community that need it most. This year, we worked with Little Brothers - Friends of the Elderly (LBFE), a non-profit volunteer-based organization committed to relieving isolation and loneliness among the elderly. In this episode of RadioRev, we sit down with Georgia Afton, Community Outreach Director for LBFE to talk about the mission, programs, and incredible work this organization is focused on. About Georgia Afton: Joining the show for this episode is Georgia Afton, Community Outreach Director from Little Brothers - Friends of the Elderly. Georgia Afton takes her professional work in elder services personally. She originally worked for Little Brothers – Friends of the Elderly – from 1999 to 2003 as the organization’s development and communications director. To this day, she cherishes the memory of several Elder Friends made during those years who added joy, meaning, and wisdom to her life. Those friendships, coupled with navigating her own parents’ elder years from overseas, drew her back to LBFE in 2015. She now serves as the organization’s community outreach director and is happy to, once again, embrace the work of ending elder loneliness and isolation through the power of friendship. Originally from the west coast of Ireland, Georgia grew up on a farm and enjoys cycling. She once rode across Europe from southern Greece to northern England.
