  • 103 people are interested

Are you looking for a rewarding way to bring a smile to seniors in your community? Helping Hands of Henderson has that opportunity. Helping Hands of Henderson is an outreach program at Dignity Health - St. Rose Dominican Hospitals. Each month we rely on volunteers to use their own personal vehicle to pick up pre-bagged and boxed groceries and deliver these items to low income seniors who remain living independently in their own homes. These groceries help the senior to meet their nutritional needs. The volunteers deliver this food to 6-8 senior homes one morning each month. In addition, the volunteer checks on the seniors well-being and provides additional resources to the senior, if needed.
