    Description

    Seniors, 55 and over . There are many home bound residents in Morris, Sussex, and Warren Counties in need of someone to take at least 1 hour per week to visit with them in-person or call them to chat, check in, and be a friendly voice on the phone.

    RSVP is looking for volunteers who would enjoy spending time with a local resident or making friendly phone calls on a weekly basis.

    In just one hour a week you can make a world of difference in someone's life!

    Friendly visits will take place in the person's home and will require a background check before you begin. Matches will be made based on location to keep your match in your own neighborhood and minimize your travel.

    Telephone calls will be made at one of our call centers and won't require the use of your own phone or phone number.

    For more information call 973-784-4900 ext. 2909 or 2905.
