    Companion for an Older Adult

    Are you someone with kindness, compassion, and a little time to share? We're looking for dedicated volunteers to offer companionship and support to older adults in our community. Whether you're available for regular visits or occasional check-ins, we’ll match you with someone who shares your interests so every interaction is enjoyable and meaningful for both of you.

    As a volunteer, you can help provide:

    • Friendly Visits - Share stories, laughter, and quality time.
    • Respite for Caregivers - Offer a short break for those providing daily care.
    • Check-in Calls - Provide routine support, caring conversations, and wellness check-ins.

    Make a difference in someone’s life-and enrich your own. Join us in building connections that matter.
