Being a Village Friends, Inc. volunteer.

Village Friends, Inc. relies on volunteers. We welcome anyone who has a passion for helping older adults remain in their own homes and connected to their community. We expect our volunteers to share the heart of our mission by being available (on their own time) for a member in need, or by helping to plan an outing with our staff.

We are looking for your skills and passion. Can you help a neighbor to appointments, change a light bulb, help a grandparent Skype with their grandchildren, or weed a garden? Village Friends, Inc. needs people like you who are willing to help their community in these simple ways. There are a variety of ways to help that will fit your skills and schedule.

“I chose to volunteer because it made a direct impact for those who are in need rather than just serving on a board or committee.  I like interacting with folks whether I know them or not.  It’s a satisfying thing. That’s our job – to help our neighbors.”

-Dick P., Village Friends, Inc. volunteer
