Thank you for your interest in volunteering with Elara Caring! Here are some of the newest volunteer opportunities. Grocery Pick Up & Delivery
- Elderly individuals at home may not be able to go pick up their groceries at this time. We're asking volunteers to sign up to deliver groceries that have already been ordered and paid for.
Dog Walking
- We're in need of volunteers who love playing with dogs! Some of the patients in our care have furry friends that need some walks and playtime.
Assembling Activity Bags
- Many of our patients are feeling a little bored being cooped up inside! Assemble an activity bag with magazines, coloring pages, word searches, and connect the dot.
Chat on the Phone
- Some of our patients would greatly appreciate a call from a volunteer! Just to say hello and have a chat during a stressful time
Pen Pals
- Provide some companionship while seniors are not able to have visitors. Exchange letters with a patient and brighten someone's day.
****PLEASE NOTE****Any volunteer opportunity that requires contact with a patient that is not remote or administrative will require a physical exam, a drug screening, and a TB test. For any questions, please email Kasey at kallison@elara.com. We are looking forwarding to hearing from you soon!
