Welcome to AIM's Website!

Cool Greetings to All,

   This summer has certainly brought its share of hot, humid days, but the temperatures have not curbed AIM’s transportation services and activities.  We have been busier than ever; distributing farmers’ market coupons, special excursions throughout the area, hosting a press release for Senator Mikulski and Asst. Secretary of Aging Kathy Greenlee (see page 11), and assisting with daily transportation needs.  However, in the last week of August, AIM’s offices will be closed for a much needed vacation.  Also, throughout the month of August, the parking lot surrounding our offices will be renovated and repaved.  AIM and St. Mary’s Outreach will be available for your inquiries and phone calls, but we recommend that you limit your visits to the office.  We will try to come to you during this renovation. 

   When these summer days begin to swelter, it is especially important that we reach out to our friends and relatives who are vulnerable to heat-related health problems particularly those without air conditioning or a strong social network. When a Code Red Heat Alert is issued by the Baltimore City Health Department, call 311 or AIM for a listing of cooling centers in your area. They offer air-conditioned space and cold water for residents.

   I just want to leave you with thoughts from Kent Nerburn on the spirit of giving, “Remember to be gentle with yourself and others. We are all children of chance and none can say why some fields will blossom while other lay brown beneath the August sun.  Care for those around you.  Look past your differences.  Their dreams are no less than yours, their choices no more easily made.  And give, give in any way you can, of whatever you posses.  To give is to love.  To withhold is to wither.  Care less for your harvest than for how it is shared and your life will have meaning and your heart will have peace.” Thank you, all, for embracing this philosophy. I am continually touched by your acts of kindness.

                        Enjoy the rest of the summer!                                                                                             

 With appreciation,                     

Liz Briscoe
