I volunteered with the Walker furniture program. I loved it and was very disappointed that I wasn't called back for The holiday program in 2017. I would love to be involved in delivering groceries to the elderly on one Saturday a month.

I volunteered in this position, every week for about 7 months, and greatly enjoyed it. The work environment is high-paced, yet everyone is friendly and focused on the job at hand. They are also very helpful and truly believe in their work's purpose.

This is a very worthwhile opportunity and not a large time commitment. I volunteer for the Henderson area Helping Hands on weekends as I work full-time and the staff are very understanding of my time constraints. The seniors seem truly grateful to have someone take them grocery shopping or to medical appointments and I enjoy some great conversation with them on the way.
