CONTACT THEM DIRECTLEY FROM THEIR WEBSIGHT
Porchlight Friends was born out of the needs of three groups: older adults wanting to remain independent at home, families that struggle to support them, and people looking for ways to connect with and support their communities. Porchlight Friends tackles all three of those components by utilizing community volunteers to support the needs of the older population and their family members.
The heart of Porchlight Friends is founder Kelly Peterschmidt’s experience and commitment to supporting at-risk populations in their homes. For over 13 years she has built and helped grow volunteer companionship programs supporting vulnerable populations in the Pikes Peak region. Other than her family, Kelly’s calling in life is to support her clients and companions by bringing them together to share life experiences; experiences that create a lifelong bond that’s as beneficial to the companion as it is to the client.
Porchlight Friends uses a unique combination of in-person services and modern technology to support the needs of older adults and their family members throughout the aging journey. This enables ongoing connection with family and friends, no matter where they are in the world. It also enables support and collaboration with community-based and healthcare resources that have a role to play in healthy aging.
