Welcome

Volunteers are the heart and soul of the Council for Older Adults. This organization was founded by community volunteers and continues to be governed by an all-volunteer board of directors today. Not only would the Council not exist without our founding volunteers, but the breadth, depth and quality of our services would be severely impacted were it not for the ongoing involvement of community volunteers within the Council for Older Adults.

Because volunteers are a vital component of our continued success, the Council is committed to providing a positive and supportive volunteer work environment which offers opportunities for personal growth, learning, meaningful service, collaboration and recognition.

We welcome one and all to inquire about getting involved. Whether for just one day, a year, or for an ongoing monthly, weekly or daily experience, we have the volunteer opportunity for you.

Other Volunteer Opportunities

All of our volunteer positions are great opportunities for those who need community service hours for any reason. We occasionally get calls from someone needing work done on a very short notice. Yard work, snow shoveling, moving furniture, minor repairs and odd jobs are a few of these opportunities. For volunteers who must enter the home of an older adult, background screens are required.
