    Description

    Help Older Adults Pay Bills on Time

    Make a difference in the life of an older neighbor in Somerville or Cambridge by enabling them to continue to live independently -- become a bill payer volunteer!

    Assist one of our clients by making sure the bills are paid on time. This volunteer position is primarily responsible for helping a client organize and pay bills, balance the check book, and develop a household budget so they can live within his/her means.

    This is a great opportunity for those who enjoy helping older adults and have 2-4 hours per month to make home visits. The flexible scheduling is great for those with daytime commitments.

    If you’d like to find another Aging Services Access Point (like us) outside of Cambridge and Somerville, here’s an online tool: https://www.massmmp.org/asap-search/

    By the way, we love volunteers with language skills! We're currently seeking a Portuguese speaker and a volunteer who converses in sign language.

    Our office is in Somerville although we serve both Somerville and Cambridge. We are especially seeking volunteers to work with Cambridge based clients.
