| Students - why volunteer? You’re
a self-starter and want to make a difference in your community.
You don’t mind working independently, and starting
a community outreach program that will have your imprint
on it sounds exciting. |
| You’re patient, fairly computer and Internet literate,
and most importantly, care about helping others. You can
make a commitment to spend a couple months helping at each
Independent Living Facility you choose to help and respect
anyone that is interested in improving themselves. You’re
friendly and outgoing - and it doesn’t hurt that there
are recognition programs
that enables Senior Connects to thank you for touching the
lives of others. If you are a high school or college student
(or an extraordinary middle school student that is 13 years
of age or older) - we invite you to check out this website
to determine if the Senior Connects program is right for
you. Click here to learn
