Potomac Community Village is a non-profit all-volunteer network of friends and neighbors, providing programs and services so members can live vibrant, active and healthy lives, while living in their own homes and neighborhoods. We call it โ€œthriving in place,โ€ so we are independent, safe in our homes, among friends, living where we want to, having the opportunity to help others, and providing peace of mind to our children. Volunteer services offered include transportation, computer assistance, simple home repairs and friendly visits and phone calls. For more information, to volunteer or to get volunteer help, contact 240-221-1370, email info@PotomacCommunityVillage.org or check out www.PotomacCommunityVillage.org or www.Facebook.com/PotomacCommunityVillage.
