    Description

    Huron Valley PACE provides an alternative to nursing home care for participants - allowing seniors to remain independent in their own homes and communities. Our Day Centers need volunteers to care and chat and play cards with our seniors. We also need assistance with group games, crafts and Bingo. Bring a smile to their heart and yours - volunteer today!
