During these uncertain times, how can we help?
See below to access our COVID-19 Resource Hub, and to explore our growing directory of COVID-19-specific and virtual volunteering opportunities.
Today is the Day to Make a Difference and start your new adventure. Retirement means every day is (I'm the boss) bosses day and every day is Employee Appreciation Day! Add a dash of volunteer appreciation and we have a trifecta for you :)
Today is the day to make a difference in your life and that of a neighbor. With just an hour or two per week you can be a friendly visitor, a shopping buddy or a reader for a neighbor who is legally blind. I know this says Wethersfield, but there are friends waiting for you in other towns too - probably five to seven miles from your house.
Requirements to be a great volunteer include:
Volunteers will be matched within three to five miles of home or work but will need to make a one-time visit to BESB’s Windsor office for an interview and sighted guide training.
Today is the day to call 800-842-4510 x4129 or email lori.st.amand@ct.gov for your Services for the Blind volunteer application. You will make a difference and you will make a friend!184 Windsor Avenue, Volunteer Positions in Most CT Towns, Windsor, CT 06095, US
