Hello,

--
Interested in volunteering in Seattle over the summer?

The *Brain Exercise Initiative (BEI) at UW* has *openings for new
volunteers this summe**r *at *Aegis Living Madison *retirement home.

BEI is a student-run 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization that uses simple
math, writing and reading aloud exercises as an intervention to improve
cognitive function. As a BEI volunteer, you will be interacting with and
helping local seniors do simple brain exercises.

We work with a great group of staff and residents at Aegis Living Madison,
as well as local high school students! In order to be eligible to become a
volunteer, you must be able to do the following:

- Commute to *Aegis Living Madison* retirement home (Address: 2200 E
Madison St, Seattle, WA 98112).
- Be available to lead sessions on *Sundays from 3-4 PM*.
- *Time Commitment:* at least one session and up to four or more
sessions per month (depending on the number of new volunteers). This
schedule is only for the summer.
- Be fully vaccinated. Vaccination status will be verified by Aegis
Living Madison.
- Must be a UW student in the fall. Graduated students are not eligible
to volunteer.
- Enjoy interacting with seniors!

If you are eligible and would like to gain valuable experience working with
local seniors, you can apply at https://forms.gle/eoKaKfWFZv9WR9uZ6.

If you have any questions, please email bei at uw.edu. Thank you for your
interest, and we look forward to hearing from you!

Best,

Ingrid Redford
