The Senior Companion Program is designed to provide seniors with an opportunity to give back to the community by helping each other, as well as to keep isolated seniors from feeling alone. Through surveys and interviews, the program matches senior volunteers with senior visitees, who build friendship during weekly visitations.

On weekly visits, matched pairs of seniors may sit and chat, go on walks, play cards, or take meals together. Some of our volunteers who are matched with vision-impaired seniors may spend time reading to their visitee.

Get involved!
