Explore the Twin Cities park systems, museums, attend plays and enjoy an outing all while escorting a senior who needs your help!
Rakhma Homes provides loving, quality care for seniors affected by Alzheimer's and other memory-related cognitive diseases. Each of our 4 group homes' residents attend a weekly outing and in order to do so, we require one-on-one assistance with walking, pushing wheelchairs, and escorting our seniors while exploring the community.
Outings generally are on Monday through Friday from 10:00 AM -- 12:00 PM.
Please email stomlin@rakhma.org to find out how you can offer direct support for a senior in need.

Mission Statement
Rakhma Homes is a non-profit organization in the Twin Cities that provides nurturing care for individuals who suffer from Alzheimer's disease or dementia. We have 4 homes located in St. Paul, Minneapolis, Golden Valley and Minnetonka. Our mission is dedicated to preserving the dignity of individuals with memory loss by providing loving, compassionate care in a familiar home setting. Our mission of care follows a person-centered care model that is unique to each individual's needs and interests. Rakhma encourages families and friends to visit often, stay for a meal or join them on a community outing.
Description
Rakhma Inc. has 4 residential homes in the Twin Cities area. Each home have a capacity of 10-15 residents.
Rakhma is not "a home"; rather, it is home, where friends sing together, take walks together, and forgive repeated stories. At Rakhma, families and friends are invited to drop in for a visit and all are encouraged to participate in the daily activities of the house: watering plants, peeling potatoes, folding towels, or simply enjoying the company of others.
Volunteers must be at least 16 years old to volunteer at Rakhma Homes.
