While we don’t have much for formal volunteer positions (besides meal delivery), there is usually something you do can do at the Senior Center to help. And, you can always just come in and visit with the seniors. Most of them love that!
For those under age 60, please fill out the volunteer information form below. For registered seniors, volunteer hours are logged in the MySeniorCenter system. If you are helping, you should be logging that service because it helps with our funding. Logging volunteer hours is easy, and we are happy to teach you how to do it and help whenever needed.
