We could not even begin to take such good care of this community’s older adults without our more-than 1300 volunteers each year. Due to COVID 19, our volunteer needs have changed. Please email Leigh Galten at lgalten@councilonaging.com for specific information. Volunteer Opportunities Include: Meals on Wheels Drivers deliver meals to homebound seniors.
