Abstract
The intention of Leah’s ambassadorship project is to link college students and area senior citizens through one of life’s most universal pleasures: food. The ambassadorship creates opportunities for college students to work with community members in preparing recipes typical of the 1930s, 1940s, and 1950s and stage community dinners. Through the cooking and dining events, Geneseo students and local residents will be able to enjoy each other's company and learn about each other's experiences. By facilitating engaging conversation between generations, this ambassadorship seeks to build mutual respect and trust across the generations in an informal, fun, and tasty way.
