Grandmother Stereotypes Redefined

I am good gramma watching my twin grandkids 3 days a week while mom works. Also help my elderly neighbor from time to time with small chores, also drive my friend to the doctor's office or hospital when in need of procedures. Love volunteering at the Hanover Theatre and being involved with the public.

I attend the Lincoln Square Peace Vigil on Tuesdays from 4 to 5 pm each week holding a sign that reads "Grandmothers for Peace".

I fully support the causes I believe in. I help people who need my help.

Photographed and wrote a book about grandmothers all over the world who are creating a better world for grandchildren everywhere. One hundred percent of my author royalties go to the Stephen Lewis Foundation's Grandmothers to Grandmothers Campaign to benefit African grandmothers who are raising children orphaned by AIDS.

I make the playground I'm at with my granddaughter, cleaner than we find it. I've done everything from pulling a few weeds out of a pretty flower bed to throwing away trash (safely) and use it as a teaching moment.
