    Description

    Do you enjoying talking on the phone? Do you enjoy making connections? Our Friendly Friday Caller program began with the Covid 19 Stay Home Stay Safe Campaign. Since many of our clients are homebound, our Friendly Calls provide that extra check-in when many of our clients may be feeling socially isolated during this time of uncertainty. Callers are provided with a client list of 10-15 clients to call each Friday and have a friendly conversation. We ask for a 3-month commitment. If you need more flexibility, we always need on-call Friendly callers. We provide a suggested script and updates from Store to Door and Fred Meyer.

    Instructions:

    Volunteers call our clients to check in and have a friendly conversation. We have two call shifts: 9-11am and 1-3pm and the flexibility to make calls up to 5pm on Sundays. Volunteers should allow up to 2 hours to make their calls, and you need a phone, and a computer with internet to open our online portal to record information. We ask for a 3-month commitment. If you need more flexibility, we always need on-call Friendly callers. When a regular caller is unavailable, we email our on-call friendly callers and if you are available you can sign up for that shift!

    • Volunteers must be 18 years of age or older to participate in this opportunity.
    • ​A background check is required.
