Volunteer: Volunteers needed to provide friendly visits with older adultsWe connect older adults with volunteers to create intergenerational friendships. Many older adults are not able to socialize due to physical or mental constraints, so a volunteer comes to their home for an hour or two a week (or every other week). It is extremely valuble to both people and a great way to meet some really amazing people in the community. This is for anyone in Salida, Nathrop, or BV.
