Seeking People Persons to Visit with Seniors in Jackson Heights and Middle Village

Save to Favorites

ORGANIZATION: Sunnyside Community Services

I have several clients located in Jackson Heights and Middle Village, Queens, who need someone to chat over the phone and or visit them. (More than one volunteer is needed). If you have an hour a week you could dedicate to these lonely seniors, please contact me! Friendly visiting is an easy, fun, rewarding way to become involved in your community.

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.
