Descripción
Queen Community House's Friendly Visiting Program matches homebound older adults with volunteers in their community, creating intergenerational relationships in Central and Southeast Queens. We're currently in need of a kind volunteers to provide social engagement to homebound older adults in Howard Beach (and neighboring areas). The payoff is that you will brighten their day and make you feel pretty good, too.
Friendly visiting is an enriching opportunity for the volunteer to develop a meaningful friendship. Together, the older adult and volunteer can discuss shared interests, learn/teach new skills, read books, learn technology, and celebrate special holidays.
The program also aims to reduce isolation and loneliness amongst seniors in our neighborhoods and communities. Friendly visitors must be 18 and over, be open to committing to 6 months of volunteerism, and a background check is required to participate in the program.
Email us at volunteer@qchnyc.org or call us at 347.822.3660 to learn more!
