Love to write and looking to give back to your community? Help guide seniors living in affordable housing with writing stories and expressing their creativity! The Writing Workshop offers residents a welcoming and encouraging literary environment. The volunteer will provide residents with both individual and group support for any fiction, non-fiction and/or creative writing they choose to do. The volunteer will also provide short stories and/or other short excerpts for group discussions.
Please contact the Volunteer Coordinator at volunteer@sahahomes.org for more details.
ABOUT THE VOLUNTEER PROGRAM: SAHA's Volunteer Program is managed by the Volunteer Coordinator, who supports volunteers and supplies all materials needed for the activity. Please note that we are only able to accommodate those with M-F 9AM-5PM availability, with the exception of some One-Time Events. In the interest of offering consistent social activities for our residents, we expect that volunteers will offer activities weekly or twice a month at a regular time and day. Residents greatly appreciate and look forward these activities as well as enjoying the company of volunteers who make them possible. Please sign up today!
