LINCOLN, Neb. (AP) — A Lincoln program is looking for some grandmas and grandpas who want to work with children.

The Foster Grandparent program, adults spend 15 to 20 hours a week at schools, usually working one-on-one with kids.

Elisa Stutheit with the Aging Partners program says the Foster Grandparents program volunteers get a tax-free stipend of $2.65 an hour that doesn’t affect qualification for food stamps, subsidized housing or Supplemental Social Security income. Volunteers also receive mileage reimbursements or a bus pass, paid leave and paid holidays.

Volunteers must be 55 or older and have incomes of no more than 200 percent of the poverty level, which is a little under $24,000 a year for a single person.
