SENIOR VOLUNTEERING
RESOURCES
Interested in becoming a
volunteer? Hospitals, schools, adult day care centers, blood banks, animal
shelters, assisted living facilities, shelters, city governments and other helping
agencies, just to name a few – often have volunteers working in several
capacities, and can always use more help.
If you’re ready to become a
volunteer but aren’t sure where to start or what you might want to do, just do
a little homework. Think about what you might enjoy doing, and then find your
places of interest and check them out. A good way to find your niche is to
research the Yellow Pages under “Social Services Organizations” and “Human
Services Organizations.”
