VON PEEL seeks volunteers for the Volunteer Visiting, Congregate Dining, Driving, Mental Health Program, Office help, Event planning and for Fundraising.
VON Peel offers a program of delivering volunteer visiting to seniors with mental health issues. This program is designed to strengthen the capacity of seniors who have been diagnosed with long-term mental health issues to become self-sufficient and enables them to remain in their own homes. We are looking for Volunteers to offer support and social interaction to isolated seniors. This program requires that Volunteers are at least 18 years of age; previous experience in mental health would be ideal but is not necessary as you will be provided with extensive training and free education sessions that will enable you to meet client’s needs. We are looking for volunteers that are caring, cheerful, reliable, sensitive, non-judgmental, consistent, and patient. If you are interested in volunteering with the Mental Health Program at VON-Peel we would love to hear from you.
This is a fantastic way to give back to the community and support senior’s program.
VOLUNTEERING FOR AS LITTLE AS 2 HOURS A WEEK CAN MAKE A DIFFERENCE!
