Today, on the Ellen Show, there was a very special guest. It was 105-year-old Edythe Kirchmaier, California’s oldest driver, possibly even the oldest driver in the US! Her birthday wish? To get 105,000 likes to her Facebook page: Direct Relief. I was a part of Edythe’s birthday wish – will you be? She is at 30,500 likes now, let’s help her out!
Direct Relief‘s mission is to improve the health and lives of people affected by poverty, disaster, and civil unrest at home and around the world.
Since 1948, they have worked to improve the quality of life for people affected by poverty, disaster, and civil unrest at home and around the world. They support the work of health care providers in the U.S. and in more than 70 countries, equipping them with essential medicines, supplies, and equipment so they can care for people in need within their communities.
She said technology is keeping people “young, alive and active.” It’s amazing the role that social media can play, even in the life of a 105-year-old woman.
