Memory Care Connections

Meet our Portland, OR - Oregon Episcopal HS executives

Nora Carpenter

Oregon Episcopal School Co - Leader

My name is Nora, and I am a freshman at Oregon Episcopal School. I wanted to bring Memory Care Connections to OES because I wanted students to have the opportunity to work with the amazing residents in the facilities and have a meaningful impact on their community. Memory care residents are often forgotten about, and I believe that this program will not only help bring awareness to the cause but also help the residents create connections and form bonds.

Irene Larkin

Oregon Episcopal School Co - Leader 

My name is Irene, and I'm a freshman at Oregon Episcopal School. After learning about Memory Care Connections, I decided to help build a chapter at my school because I wanted to make a meaningful impact in my community. It will be great to see students connect with the older generation, which brings companionship to memory care residents and allows them to learn from their life experiences. I believe this is an important and impactful way to give back.
