Description
Our program matches volunteers with older adults that are generally homebound and isolated. We ask for one hour per week to help lessen their social isolation. We look to match you with someone who, even if we did not have our jobs, you would still want this person as a friend.
If you or someone you know is interested in enriching their life (and yours) with a new friend, please reach out via Idealist or by calling 718 454-2100 and asking for the Friendly Visiting Department. You won't regret it.
