Our Story
Our journey began in January 2020, sparked by a heartfelt mission to enhance the lives of seniors and caregivers. Co-founders Michael Herrington and Mark Ulett, PhD, driven by a shared passion, were inspired by a CDC report highlighting loneliness and isolation as the second leading cause of illness and death among seniors.
When the pandemic hit, we faced a crucial choice: pause our mission or push forward with even greater resolve. We chose the latter, understanding that our support was needed more than ever. Our journey has been a testament to our resilience and adaptability.
In 2021, just as our print book distribution was expanding, we faced a significant setback due to disruptions in the paper supply chain. However, we swiftly adapted. We transitioned our print activity books to digital PDFs for local printing, showcasing our commitment to overcoming challenges. Approximately 283 days later, we triumphantly resumed printing, offering beautiful 32-page books alongside digital formats. It was a testament to our perseverance and the unwavering support and collective effort of our team, partners, and community.
Today, Ways 2 Wellness stands as a beacon of hope and innovation in senior care and well-being. Our customizable activity books and digital resources uplift, engage, and empower seniors and caregivers alike. Our dedication to making a positive impact remains unwavering as we look to the future.
Join us on our mission to create a world where everyone, regardless of age or circumstance, can thrive with dignity, purpose, and joy.
Thank you for being a part of our story!
Onward,
The Ways 2 Wellness Team
