We get along and just enjoy one another’s company,” says Tom. “It feels like we have created a sense of community that is so hard to find these days, where neighbors look after neighbors and everyone is happier for it.
Tom
- Volunteer caregiver
She says that her goal in all these volunteer roles is simply to be “a small light (or voice) offered in love, which brings a smile.”
Mary Lou
- Volunteer caregiver
I really depend on her and she is so thoughtful and so helpful. She does everything I could ever asked for and she is my sweetheart.
Doris
- carereceiver
I’m surprised I have actually helped over 50 people and I can remember all of them. They are in my heart forever. They have given me much more that I’ve given them. To be a volunteer is just one the greatest thing in the world.
Judy
- Volunteer caregiver
Care-giving volunteer is a person who is willing to listen, who is not judgmental, who has a heart, who is willing to walk alongside, to serve the elderly.
