Looking for a win/win volunteer opportunity?! Everyone benefits from companionship and social contact. When someone is caring for a loved one, it can become increasingly difficult to meet these needs. By giving just 2 hours of your time once a week, you are giving family caregivers a much needed break, as well as giving their loved one the opportunity to spend time with you! Caring Companion volunteers know that they are serving their community in a meaningful and impactful way!
Volunteers DO provide much needed socialization and friendship, and caregiver respite. Volunteers DO NOT provide personal care, meal preparation, or transportation. Support and training is provided. Call us today for more information!
