How Can I Help?

Donate Your Time

Volunteers assist in providing presentations, sharing talents, organizing events, and much, much more!

Whether you only have five minutes a day or one day a year, you can volunteer to help. We can accommodate students who wish to fulfill community service requirements or out-of-town groups. We work hard to see that our volunteers have meaningful and fulfilling work experiences with elderly men and women in Washington.
