At A.G. Rhodes, a mission-driven nonprofit nursing home provider with three communities in metro Atlanta, your generous donation to our Music Therapy Songs for Seniors program will bring personalized music - and memories - to our nursing home residents. 

Music Therapy is a transformative program that has a special way of connecting us to others and to our memories, bringing joy to our residents. Musical memories are often the longest-lasting memories that people have. For those living with dementia, a song can transform them back in time, helping them to recall precious memories and reconnect with the world.

Our Songs for Seniors program utilizes personalized playlists downloaded on iPods/mp3 players for individual residents to enjoy. Staff work with residents and family members to curate these playlists based on their favorite songs and musical preferences. Residents who spend time listening to their favorite music are often more alert and engaged throughout the day.

Your generous gift to the Music Therapy Songs for Seniors program will help us purchase more iPods/mp3 players, headphones, musical instruments, and music downloads so we can bring the joy of music and memory to even more residents. We hope you will make a donation today! 

And thanks to some wonderful friends and generous donors, individual gifts of $250 or more will be matched dollar for dollar, doubling your impact!
