Make a Friend, Be a Friend

Are you ready to make a new friend? We are looking for volunteers to share their interests and time with an individual with a developmental disability who likes doing the same things you do! A chance to give back to your community while having fun at the same time! Meet with the individual you are matched with about once a month or more frequently if time allows. The two of you can decide what you would like to do with your time together. Examples of activities include, but are not limited to: movies, concerts, going out to eat, walks in the park, biking, musicals, music events, shopping, hanging out, craft projects, and sporting events. Locations available in Plymouth, Eden Prairie, Crystal, New Hope, Wayzata, Maple Grove, Golden Valley, St. Louis Park, Minnetonka, Falcon Heights, Forest Lake, Hugo, Lindstrom, Little Canada, Mahtomedi, Maplewood, New Brighton, North St. Paul, Oakdale, Pierz, Roseville, St. Anthony, St. Pau, Shoreview, Vadnais Heights, White Bear Lake, White Bear Township and Woodbury.
