Queens Community House is recruiting volunteers for our Friendly Visiting program, a program that matches home bound older adults with volunteers for weekly visiting to help create a mutual relationship and reduce isolation and loneliness among seniors with mobility impairments. This fun and energetic Corona senior is looking for a visitor to help her learn and practice cell phone skills for someone who is visually impaired. She also enjoys keeping up with social media. Afternoons preferred. Senior does have pets in the home.
