I DID SOMETHING GOOD TODAY FOUNDATION

Image_202003241415

The IDSGT Foundation has launched a senior chat line called GoldenTALK where seniors can call to simply chat, and also can obtain resources if needed, and we are looking for weekend volunteers!

Seniors have been asked to self-isolate due to Covid-19, and our chat line is needed more than ever to keep seniors connected to their communities and to assist when help is needed.

GoldenTALK volunteers will answer calls via their smartphone through our app. Volunteers will also log the calls into our online database. There are also opportunities to make outbound calls for those seniors or family members who have requested wellness checks via phone.

Although we receive calls from all over the United States, we operate in Pacific Standard Time. The chat line is open from 11 am PST to 11 pm PST / 2 pm EST to 2 am PST

Do something good today and volunteer to chat with our seniors today!

***Shifts are in two-hour increments

**Temporarily the chat line is operating 12-hours a day. Bi-lingual volunteers are also needed.
