Job description
Lend a Hand and Help a Friendship Grow! Do you enjoy good conversation, sharing stories, and making a positive difference in someone's life? We are looking for a friendly Social Volunteer to spend one hour each week visiting a gentleman who would value companionship and connection. This gentleman enjoys watching television and action movies, and loves spending time in the garden or chatting about handyman projects and practical tasks around the home.
Originally from Lebanon, he also speaks Arabic and would enjoy connecting with someone who shares an interest in his culture, language or life experiences. Your weekly visits could involve sharing a conversation over a cup of tea, discussing favourite movies, talking about gardening tips, admiring the garden, or simply enjoying each other's company.
If you're ready to help cultivate a meaningful friendship and make a lasting difference in someone's life, apply today. You might just find this rewarding opportunity grows on you! Your impact Volunteering as a social visitor can be a rewarding experience, both for the person you visit as well as yourself.
