Music and Memory- Help a buddy by listening to music and socializing with them!

If you’ve seen the documentary Alive Inside, you may be aware of the potential music has in helping facilitate episodic memory in individuals who have dementia. Help bring that to the Madison community by volunteering with Music and Memory!

Music and Memory is a volunteer opportunity on TUESDAYS from 1:30 – 3:30 PM during the Spring semester. Volunteers walk together to Capitol Lakes Residential Home on Main St. and use iPods to play some songs for a buddy, all while reminiscing and learning together. If you are interested in learning more about the opportunity, email the Music and Memory coordinator, Arielle Mitchell, at akmitchell2@wisc.edu"
