As we grow older, some of the tasks we do every day can become increasingly difficult, like grocery shopping. As a volunteer Shopping Assistant, you will be matched one to one with an older adult in need of this service. Some folks would like a companion by their side as they navigate around the store, but most simply prefer a person to shop for them or pick up pre ordered groceries at the store.

Join the Springwell volunteer team and make a difference in just a few hours per month. Taking care of monthly bill paying and maintaining a budget can be overwhelming for some people due to aging or physical limitations. A little support with managing finances is often one of the services individuals need in order to maintain their independence. Money Management Program volunteers assist low-income seniors and adults with disabilities who are still able to make responsible decisions about their financial affairs but may need some functional assistance with the bill-paying process, to achieve economic security and maintain peace of mind. Volunteers assist consumers with monthly bill paying, paperwork organization, establishing a budget, keeping track of bank records, monitoring income and handling other issues associated with personal finance.

Join the Springwell team as a Home Delivered Meals Driver! Springwell is an essential part of the social safety net for thousands of older adults each year. Springwell has never stopped working diligently to continue to provide services to our senior community through the pandemic. We have, however, faced unique and unanticipated challenges, especially in our home-delivered meals program, which has suffered from staffing issues due to the closure of a key community partner. Springwell responded by recruiting temporary volunteers who are willing to provide home delivery of meals. Even with re-opening activities, we continue to need volunteers to fill this vital role. We especially need volunteers who can work in the towns of Brookline, Newton, and Wellesley. If you are: interested in receiving training and support to help us reach vulnerable seniors with critical in-home meals; have a reliable car, a current driver’s license, and a clean driving record; are able to provide these services, consistent with guidance we receive from the CDC, WHO and other governmental agencies, recognizing you may come into contact with high-risk members of our community and others; are able to lift up to 25 pounds; and and are successfully able to meet the regulatory pre-requisites for the position. *Note: These positions are temporary and on a volunteer basis, without compensation or benefits. Please contact us! Email volunteer@springwell.com to start the process; or go online and apply to volunteer at www.springwell.com/volunteer
