Would You Like To Help Seniors in Your Community?

Willing Hearts, Helpful Hands Needs You! Join us for a Volunteer Orientation to learn more.

Whether you are a friend or a family member, caring for an older adult can be a challenge. The Willing Hearts, Helpful Hands program is dedicated to easing the many burdens associated with being a caregiver of an older adult.

Volunteering to help older adults and their families is a rewarding experience. The Willing Hearts, Helpful Hands program is an opportunity for you to make a difference in your community by sharing your time with a senior. Volunteers converse with their senior, reminisce, read to them, play cards/games, do puzzles, listen to music, etc.

We offer weekly opportunities to fit any schedule. Plus, volunteers receive free training and a living allowance of $50 per month.
