Event Details
Valley Opportunity Council’s (VOC) Senior Companion Program (SCP) is seeking new volunteers to serve in Chicopee, Holyoke, and surrounding cities.
The SCP pairs volunteers ages 55-plus with older adults who need companionship. Senior Companion Volunteers provide social connection and friendly visiting; offer transportation and help with errands such as grocery shopping or medical appointments; and deliver caregiver respite, giving family members a needed break. Each volunteer experience is unique, based on a carefully created one-on-one match.
For those interested in learning more about the program and volunteering, our next Open House will be held on Monday, April 27, 2026 from 2-4 pm, 516 Chicopee Street, Chicopee, featuring refreshments and information. Current SCP volunteers will also be present to answer questions.
Can't make it on Monday or have questions? Please contact Andrea Holden, Director of the Senior Companion Program, at AHolden@valleyopp.com or (413) 612-0229 for more information.
