Family Eldercare's Lifetime Connections Without Walls (LCWW) provides older adults with the opportunity to socialize, learn, and have fun with others all from the comfort of their own home via their personal telephone! We are currently looking for volunteers to visit our participants in their home and spend 30 to 60 minutes socializing with them (may range from once a week to once a month depending on schedules). Sharing stories, facts, a meal, or even just watching TV!
Training and support will be provided. Volunteers are required to fill out an application and complete a background check (Texas ID required). Must have own transportation.
