Become a Friendly Visitor volunteer for an isolated elder in Alameda County. Spend 1-2 hours a week visiting with a senior and enjoy good conversation, laughter, board games, a shared hobby - or go out to lunch, shopping, or appointments. Choose a mutually agreeable day and time.
During COVID, we transitioned visits to weekly phone calls and this option is still available for those looking for a remote opportunity.
Not the right fit? We have lots of other ways to get involved with LIFE too: deliver Meals on Wheels, drive seniors to the doctor or to get groceries, help with office work & more! Get in touch to learn more.
