Are you a good listener? Do you like talking with seniors? If so, then we need you!
Volunteers are needed to place Friendship Line calls to isolated, home-bound seniors in Cook, Will, Kendall and Grundy counties.
Callers phone seniors 1-2 times per week to check in on how they are doing and if they have any immediate needs, but more importantly to let seniors know that someone cares.
Calls can be placed Monday thru Friday between 10am and 6pm and it takes about 1.5-2 hours to complete a list of calls each time.
Bilingual volunteers are encouraged to apply.
Please contact us at Volunteer@cnnssa.org with any questions.
Thank you!

Mission Statement
Our vision is to live in an environment where seniors and persons with disabilities are valued and are an active part of our community. We currently serve nearly 600,000 meals a year to over 7,500 seniors and persons with disabilities in Suburban Cook, Kendall & Grundy Counties.
Description
Join us for lunch!
Fight against hunger by giving back to the older adults in your community! The Community Nutrition Network needs your help serving meals at our café sites as well as delivering meals to homebound adults. These opportunities can last anywhere from 1-3 hours and are located at various sites throughout the northern Illinois area.
At The Community Nutrition Network, we strive to keep older adults and persons with disabilities an active part of their community by providing them with the support they need. Much more than a meal, our programs combat depression and isolation, offers companionship, and provides safety checks for homebound adults.
