There are 168 hours in a week, it only takes 1 to make a difference!

Flexible Schedule | Virtual Opportunity

With just 1 hour a week from the comfort of your home you can make a significant difference in someone's life! You read that right just 1 hour a week! That still leaves you with 167 hours a week to spare. For 15 years Social Call has been working towards ending isolation and loneliness amongst older adults. So, you can trust that you're giving your time to a non-profit that is safe and purposeful. Social Call works to connect older adults in need of social connection to volunteers that would like to donate 30 minutes - 1 hour a week of their time. Connections are over the phone or on a video call so rest assured you can fulfill your obligation from home or even on a lunch break. The best part about Social Call is how thoughtful we are when making matches! Many of our matches result in lasting friendships. Because of our unique onboarding process for both volunteers and participants, we are able to connect you with a participant that will likely become your good friend. Our matches are intentionally made to create reciprocal bonds. Also matches are made during your availability, whether you have time to connect first thing in the morning, during your lunch, or right before calling it a night! Social Call is available all throughout the U.S. so be prepared to learn new things and meet some amazing human beings! Remember the days of pen pals and how fun that was? This is so much better!

I enjoyed the short time meeting other volunteers and learned a lot about the organization. I plan on volunteering again to gain the full experience of setting up and helping out at the luncheon!
