  • These intergenerational connections combat loneliness and isolation among senior citizens, providing them with valuable social interaction and a sense of purpose. For high school students, Herralink offers crucial life lessons in empathy, compassion, and community service.

  • The partnership between St. Stephen’s and St. Agnes and Goodwin Living has been such a great experience for all of those involved. Goodwin Living has been a great partner in imagining possibilities of how we can get our students involved, and keeping an open mind to how we can turn those possibilities into realities. When Herralink joined Goodwin Living, it brought a new energy to the types of programs we could support together, and we were able to sustain regular visits between our Upper School students and the residents of Goodwin House.

    Director of Service Learning at St. Stephen St. Agness School

  • Our office has seen firsthand the impact this organization has had on the quality of lives of our seniors, and I strongly believe Herralink has and continues to decrease isolationism among seniors in retirement homes, helping them connect with their community, and as a result, it’s creating enormous change across the region.

  • Herralink’s effort to bring intergenerational structure to human connection has made an impact in the Northern Virginia community by engaging students at 32+ high schools and connecting over 2,000 older adults with 600+ volunteers to garner connection and belonging. As an Area Agency on Aging, we understand the importance of such connection, and support Herralink’s efforts to continue expanding their reach to further the quality of intergenerational interaction.
