Caregivers helping with finances urged to switch to direct deposit

Sat, 12/26/2009 - 12:19 — GentleVic

(ARA) - Half of American caregivers make health-related decisions for a loved one, and a new government survey finds an equal number are now helping to manage the finances of a parent, friend or other person needing their care -- adding to caregivers' levels of stress and anxiety.

Yet, surprisingly, only 52 percent of caregivers receiving Social Security payments on behalf of the person they care for say they use direct deposit, a decades-old time-saving tool that is safer and more reliable than paper checks.

Volunteers Needed

We have several things we need help with if the Lord tugs at your heart. We need people to make phone calls, who have long distance for which they pay a flat rate for long distance rather than being charged for each call.

You would make calls from your home. Hopefully you have a computer so you could make notes on the calls you make and forward those notes to us. You would be talking to executives only.

Please send an info request or call us for more information

The Good News Plus desires to bring Community closer together by giving hope and encouragement to deserving individuals with a Community Appreciation Award program

In the future The Good News Plus hopes to be offering a monthly Community Appreciation award to an individual who is deserving of appreciation in one of the seven (7) catagories below. The individuals will be chosen from entries submitted about a real life story of a nominated friend or individual who you have heard about. Once the Community Appreciation Award program is active, sponsored categories will allow the winning nominated individual of a category to receive a one time gift of $1000.00 from the group or business that is sponsoring that category

Submit your candidate for ONLY one of 7 catagories

Individuals will only be eligible to win once per year. Candidates will be considered as an entry for that monthly competition only. Your submission should be a 400 - 1200 word bio about why the nominee should be considered as the best person for that category that month.

Submissions will only be considered and entered into the current months submissions. Winners may be announced during the following month's editions of The Good News Plus.

Articles and submissions about the winning entries or individuals may be published in future editions of The Good News Plus.

Please start sending any real life stories about your nominees to The Good News Plus. The nominations will be kept on file so that as soon as the Community Appreciation Award program kicks off, the nominations will become an official entry for the appropriate category of the Community Appreciation Award program. If you know of any corporation that may be interested in sponsoring a category for one year, please submit their information to us by email and we will be happy to check with them.

Thank you and God Bless you.
