Be a community friend volunteer to Bill. Bill likes to go fishing and take short nature walks. Bill enjoys watching baseball games and action movies. He has a great sense of humor.
We all want to belong yet people with intellectual and developmental disabilities (I/DD) have less opportunities for social interaction and can feel more isolated. Bridge the gap and help people with I/DD find a place in their community.
Volunteers are matched with a person with I/DD and attend an outing with their match once a month based on common interests- - like fishing! Groups keep the cost to $10-$15 per outing. Providing a ride for the person you are matched with is one more way you can be of service.
When: Tuesdays or Thursday afternoons. Two to three hours once a month for a one year commitment. Many of our volunteers have enjoyed the friendships they’ve made and have continued volunteering long beyond that first year.
Where: Middleburg Heights area
