Being independent is a matter of pride for many of our elderly and disabled individuals. For some of our clients, the basic need to access food can be difficult. Volunteers assist our elderly clients by transporting them to the store, assisting in the store, if needed, with reading labels, reaching items, or ensuring correct money transactions. In some instances, volunteers shop for a client because he/she is physically unable to shop for themselves. By volunteering a couple of hours a week or a couple of hours per month, you become an integral part in maintaining this elderly person's independence. Our clients live in 7 towns in the Greater Derry, NH area; Derry, Londonderry, Windham, Hampstead, Danville, Sandown, and Chester.

We serve the towns of Chester, Danville, Derry, Hampstead, Londonderry, Sandown and Windham.
