Project Healthy Bones

Exercise and health education program for older adults, with or at risk of osteoporosis. Program’s goal is to improve strength, balance, and flexibility for safe and successful aging.

Volunteer to help seniors

Interfaith Caregivers volunteers provide small but essential services like grocery shopping, giving a ride to a doctor’s appointment or  a friendly in-person or virtual visit. Support with these daily life activities enables our elderly neighbors to remain in their homes and live independently.

There are numerous volunteer opportunities available in our network. We believe that you can find one that you would enjoy.
