Volunteer Opportunities

 

Friendly Visitor Program

As we enter a new year, perhaps some time could be set aside to devote to visiting a Senior in Shelby County. A friendly visit or a phone visit could make their day!

Visits may be made to senior citizens living in homes or Assisted Living Facilities. Maybe you'd rather visit in a group setting? Then, come along when group visits are planned. Look for those dates on the calendar, page 6. Volunteers could offer card playing, special music or even manicures for seniors wanting their fingernails painted.

Get started today! Call Mary Brown, volunteer coordinator at 398-0127 or just click on mbrown@shelbyseniorserviices.org
