Extra, Extra... Friendship News Just In! Community Social Volunteering
Job description
Extra, Extra... Friendship News Just In! Do you enjoy meaningful conversations and making a positive difference in someone's life? We are looking for a friendly Social Volunteer to visit a lovely lady for one hour each week. This lady enjoys keeping up with current events by watching the news, solving crossword puzzles, spending time gardening, and relaxing with a good crime movie or TV mystery.
She speaks Italian, English, and Spanish and would enjoy sharing stories, experiences, and friendly conversation with a volunteer companion. Whether you're discussing the latest headlines, comparing gardening tips, helping solve a crossword clue, or chatting about a favourite whodunit, your weekly visits can provide valuable companionship and brighten her day.
As a Social Volunteer, you'll have the opportunity to form a genuine friendship while helping someone stay socially connected and engaged in the things they enjoy. If you'd love to help cultivate connection, share great conversations, and be the headline act in someone's week, we'd love to hear from you. Apply today and make a story worth sharing!
Your impact Volunteering as a social visitor can be a rewarding experience, both for the person you visit as well as yourself. Regular visits from volunteers can help to improve quality of life and help older people feel less isolated. Your visits will bring great joy to the client you are matched with. https://www.youtube.
