Growing from the Roots

A Volunteer Grandparents legacy book

In the spring of 2010 Po-Yi Liu, the Environmental Legacy Program Coordinator for Volunteer Grandparents designed a collaborative book project, aimed at demonstrating the relationship between intergenerational relationships and ecological sustainability. “Growing from the Roots” is collection of stories and reflections from people who have helped to strengthen the Volunteer Grandparents organization: staff, family, volunteers and supporters. The book represents our legacy as an organization, and the impact our program has had on the individuals involved.
