Looking for summer volunteers to see our patients. We see patients in the following areas: athens, commerce, toccoa, hartwell, madison, eatonton, greensboro, etc. Our volunteers are there to sit with them, run errands (only when needed), light housekeeping (only when needed), read to the patients, and most of all provide companionship for our patients. This is a very rewarding and unique experience. Each patient is unique in their own way, but regardless of that, each and every one of our patients love the familiar face and smiles that our volunteers provide.
