Episode Synopsis


Caitlin Crommett is the founder of DreamCatchers Foundation, an organization creating connections for older and younger generations to fulfill the end of life dreams of hospice patients. Caitlin got her start volunteering in hospice at only 12 years old. After realizing the benefits of matching younger volunteers with older adults, Caitlin founded DreamCatchers Foundation in 2009 as a non-profit organization. According to the Dream Catchers website, “DreamCatchers empowers students and their local communities to fulfill end-of-life Dreams of hospice patients, and creates powerful connections for younger and older generations.” Caitlin would tell you that intergenerational relationships bring wonderful benefits and gifts to both generations.
