I have a Romanian-speaking man in Astoria, Queens who needs someone to visit him. The volunteer must also speak English. If you have an hour a week you could dedicate to this lonely senior, please contact me! Friendly visiting is an easy, fun, rewarding way to become involved in your community.
What is Friendly Visiting? Friendly Visitors are volunteers who visit homebound seniors for about an hour each week in their homes.
Volunteers reduce feelings of isolation, and help improve seniors' mental and physical health. Seniors are able to stay in their homes and communities longer. Volunteers can dramatically improve the quality of a seniors' life.
Friendly Visitors receive training, support and feedback from the Friendly Visiting Coordinator. We will match you with someone who shares your interests and schedule.
