This Leap Year consider becoming a volunteer with The Shepherd's Center of Fairfax-Burke serves seniors (50+) who no longer drive. We seek bilingual (Spanish-English) volunteer drivers to provide rides to and from medical, dental, and physical therapy appointments in our service area (central Fairfax, Fairfax City and Burke). Drivers can also volunteer to take seniors to local shopping, such as grocery stores. Both medical and shopping round trips typically take two hours. Rides occur on weekdays, during business hours. Driving one trip per month, or more if your schedule allows, would be a wonderful way to help your community. Want more information? Call 703 715-7592. Or email recruiter@scfbva.org.

Are you friendly, caring, computer literate, a clear speaker, and want to help local seniors? Consider becoming an office volunteer for the Shepherd's Center of Fairfax-Burke and South County offices! Office volunteers match volunteer drivers with local seniors needing transportation to medical appointments and shopping. Volunteers answer and make calls, provide information, and enter data into a computer. Volunteers usually give 6 hours per month total (by having 2 or 3 shifts per month). Shifts are M-F, mornings or afternoons. This is a remote/work from home opportunity. Our Alexandria office is in the Gerry Hyland Government Center. Our office that serves Burke, Central Fairfax and Fairfax City is located where Olley Lane intersects Little River Turnpike in Fairfax. Prospective volunteers are given a brief preview. If interested, volunteers are then trained and supported in the work. The time goes by quickly on this job. You meet the nicest people, while also helping so many in your local community.
