Every Opus resident will make a commitment to volunteer approximately ten hours each month to help the community and their neighbors. We know that this generation of older adults is looking for purpose – to continue contributing. And, as well, this is one way that Opus can be more affordable, by activating our most valuable resource – the people who live here – to make the community thrive. Volunteer opportunities are many: teaching classes, supporting events, being a host or hostess in the café, organizing a program, helping a fellow resident. The hope is that residents will tap into a volunteer role that reflects a long-time passion or allows them to learn something new that they enjoy.
