Help make reminder phone calls to older adults

ORGANIZATION: Family Eldercare

Hands
Connect with an isolated older adult.

Family Eldercare's Lifetime Connections Without Walls is a virtual activities program for older adults across the country. We offer social and educational sessions by phone and video.

This volunteer opportunity involves making phone calls to remind participants about the sessions they register for. This courtesy phone call can make all the difference. It not only reminds them about their sessions, but it's also an opportunity for them to interact with a friendly voice.

The time commitment is up to you, depending on how many sessions you'd like to make reminder calls for. Calls take about one hour per session.

While this volunteer opportunity is virtual, you must live in the U.S. Phone, computer, and internet connection is required, along with a positive attitude and fun energy that transfers well over the phone to older adults. Training and ongoing support provided.

Thanks so much for considering this opportunity!
