    Description

    Volunteer with Seniors in North San Diego

    ElderHelp is a local nonprofit organization that is expanding services into North County communities along the 78 (Escondido, San Marcos, Vista, Oceanside, and Carlsbad).

    We're looking for volunteers to join our team!We have many opportunities to choose from. You can get matched with a senior to help with activities based on your interests and availability!

    Options include:

    • Grocery shopping
    • Home office help ie. sorting mail and paperwork
    • Friendly conversations/visits

    Visits are typically scheduled every other week for 2 hours each. Through these visits, volunteers are improving the quality of life for seniors who wish to remain independent in their own homes!
