Volunteer

Care for Dementia and Alzheimer’s

You are important to our success, volunteer today!

Living in a nursing home can be lonely. Our elders miss the personal interactions of friends and families. Volunteering does not only benefit the resident, it benefits the volunteers as well. By becoming a volunteer, you help bring companionship to our elders by providing one-to-one interaction or as part of a group. When the youth volunteer, it helps to build bridges between the generations. Volunteering is also a great way to create memories and strengthen relationships with a loved one that resides in a nursing home. Volunteering helps you to connect to your community while bringing joy to a person’s life.

Ways you can volunteer:

  • Group activities like: outings, classes, and projects
  • One-on-one time: reading, reminiscing, playing games, or listening to music
  • Write the elders’ stories: help the elder write a journal of their life. What a great way to learn the personal side of history!

Why should you volunteer:

  • It gives you an increased sense of meaning and self-worth. Helping others provides a natural sense of accomplishment. Volunteering is especially beneficial for those that have retired or lost a spouse.
  • Volunteering can ease depression. Social isolation increases depression. By volunteering you remain socially active, while improving your mood and relieving anxiety.
  • Live a longer, healthier life! Volunteering helps you remain physically and mentally active!
