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.
Best Buddies North Carolina has launched our new Citizens adult friendship program! Citizens creates one-to-one friendships between adults with and without intellectual or developmental disabilities (IDD) in the community. These friendships are made based on age, location and common interests. Friendship matches talk at least once a week and meet up at least twice a month (virtually or in-person based on comfort level). Matches are made for a full year and if everything is going well, the friendship is renewed. Best Buddies has a multi-step application process, that includes an online application, background check and a phone call or video interview. Please email izzitritz@bestbuddies.org to learn more!!
No additional volunteer opportunities at this time.
