Since the pandemic we have had no Volunteer opportunities but now that it has largely passed we are open again to the help of Volunteering.
If you are interested Call 718-408-2510
Some of the special services volunteers provide include:
- Home visiting: Visit those members who find it difficult to get out–a friendly visit can be once a week, a month. Stop by for a visit and make a new friend.
- Friendly phone calls: Perfect for those individuals who love to chat! Contact a neighbor by phone just to "check in" and share the news.
- Walking: Walking is more fun in groups! Join your neighbors, create a group and encourage each other to walk for good health.
- Developing the Project and helping it grow by increasing the membership and encouraging activities.
- Escort: Accompany a member to the doctor, worship service, hairdresser, or other appointment or visit out of the home.
- Grocery shopping: Accompany a member grocery shopping and help them with the packages or pick up the list and do the shopping for them.
- Sewing: Sewing, knitting and other crafts.
- Pet care: Walk the dog, brush the cat, put out food and water.
- Running errands: You can help our members by running errands.
- Computer support: Help members set up equipment such as phones, video, routers, computers and learn to use them. Identify technology problems and provide solutions or recommend professional services.
- Hold a workshop on a subject of your interest.
- Reading aloud for individuals or group.
- Social events and educational programs: Initiate and arrange events of interest to our members. Locate and recommend programs and events.
