    Description

    🤝 Companionship Volunteer

    🧡 About Us

    Collective Hands for Seniors Inc (CHFSI.ORG) is a nonprofit dedicated to enriching the lives of older adults through compassion, connection, and community. We believe that meaningful companionship can transform lives—and we’re looking for volunteers who want to make a difference simply by being present.

    🌟 Role Overview

    As a Companionship Volunteer, you’ll spend time with seniors—talking, playing games, sharing stories, or just being a comforting presence. Your time and attention can help reduce loneliness, boost emotional well-being, and create lasting bonds.

    🛠️ Responsibilities

    • Visit or call seniors regularly to offer companionship.
    • Engage in light activities like board games, storytelling, or walks.
    • Listen with empathy and offer emotional support.
    • Respect boundaries and maintain confidentiality.
    • Report any concerns to CHFSI staff.

    🎯 Ideal Candidate

    • Kind, patient, and a good listener.
    • Passionate about supporting older adults.
    • Reliable and consistent with scheduling.
    • Comfortable engaging in conversation and light activities.
    • No special skills required—just a caring heart.

    💡 What You’ll Gain

    • Deep, meaningful connections with seniors.
    • A sense of purpose and fulfillment.
    • Flexible schedule and supportive team.
    • Recognition and appreciation for your time.

    Ready to bring joy and comfort to someone’s day?
