Help document meetings, organize notes, and keep projects moving

Bring ideas to the table (we value fresh perspective here!)

Volunteer: Spread Cheer to Social Isolated Seniors

Quarantining can be lonely for everyone, but senior citizens are feeling particularly isolated. We fight against senior loneliness and spread joy by writing them handwritten letters.

Once a week we will send you a sign-up sheet. You can choose to write however many letters you like to one of the 22 nursing homes, senior centers or meals on wheels programs that we serve. 

This is a wonderful, and safe way to serve the community. Everyone is welcome to join - from kids to retirees!
