    Description

    Seeking Volunteers for various positions-  Wellesley Neighbors

    Looking for a flexible way to get involved, meet interesting people, and strengthen your local community? Volunteer with Wellesley Neighbors.

    Wellesley Neighbors is an intergenerational community built around connection, practical support, and the belief that neighbors of all ages have something valuable to offer one another.

    Volunteer opportunities include providing occasional rides, helping with errands, offering basic tech support, or assisting with small household tasks as a handy helper. Some volunteers give a ride to an appointment, others help troubleshoot a phone, pick up groceries, or lend a hand with a minor home task.

    As part of the national Village movement, Wellesley Neighbors helps adults remain active, independent, and connected as they age in place. Our goal is not simply to provide services, but to build a stronger community where neighbors become friends.

    Volunteer as little or as much as you like, on a schedule that works for you.
