Befrienders Program
Commit just one hour a week for a year and build a lasting friendship with a senior! Many seniors face limited social interaction due to life transitions, physical limitations, or other circumstances. Befrienders pairs volunteers with seniors for weekly visits, whether it’s sharing a meal, playing games, taking a walk, or simply enjoying good conversation. These connections bring joy, companionship, and a meaningful impact to both the volunteer and the senior.
Lend a Hand Program
Looking for a flexible way to support seniors? Lend A Hand offers one-time (or sometimes recurring) opportunities to assist with specific tasks that help seniors remain independent in their homes. Volunteers can choose from a variety of needs, including:
- Technology Assistance (help with phones, tablets, remotes, etc.)
- Household Needs (leaky faucets, rearranging furniture, minor repairs)
- Seasonal Support (snow shoveling, yard work, raking leaves)
You pick the task and set it up at a time that works for you!
