Bring a smile to a Senior! CALL CONNECTION volunteers needed...

Save to Favorites

ORGANIZATION: Meals on Wheels Orange County, NC

  • 57 people are interested

As a CALL CONNECTION volunteer, your primary function is to call your assigned list of recipients to "check-in." But you will also be a liaison and possibly even a lifesaver. Calls will be made once weekly or every-other-week and feedback from your calls will be sent via email to our Operations Manger/Coordinator. Call timing is flexible, based on your schedule--but we find that between 10am and 3pm is a good time of day to reach recipients. We are hoping that volunteers can commit to at least 3-4 months of volunteering, as some of our recipients get attached to volunteers and it's undestandably hard for them to say goodbye. We are aiming to start this new program in early-September and will offer virtual training ahead of time. Background checks are required--Meals on Wheels will cover the fees. Volunteers must be at least 16 years old and live in the "Triangle" area of North Carolina. Thank you!
