    Description

    Join a Care Team to Support the Caregiver of a Senior / Veteran (Seattle / South King County)

    Bring your interests and talents to an engaging volunteer role, in a team of like-minded volunteers. Whether it’s an interest in crafts, reading, or movies, a gift of gab, or empathetic ear, all are welcome!

    Help relieve stress and prevent burnout by supporting an unpaid family caregiver, who may (for example) ask you to help organize their home, plan a special occasion, help with a gardening project, pick up their dry cleaning or spend time with the person they care for while they go for a cup of coffee with a friend.

    In just 4 flexible hours a month and a one-year commitment you can lift the spirits of an unpaid family caregiver and their dependent, gain a unique life experience, and enrich your spare time.

    • Various location options are available throughout Seattle and greater King County, WA.
    • No minimum experience needed; Training and ongoing support provided.
    • Join as an individual or recruit a team!

    As one caregiver said of her Care Team: "I truly am grateful for our team. Their kindness and their readiness to provide meaningful interaction with my husband [the care recipient] has been greatly beneficial to me not feeling isolated and alone. This week your team allowed me to see people I had not seen since before the Pandemic. All of the team is warm, friendly, and compassionate."
