Bennington Country Meals on Wheels needs Volunteers!
Bennington County Meals on Wheels is in desperate need for volunteer drivers to deliver hot, nutritious meals to seniors in Bennington County (Including the Northshire). Meals on Wheels volunteers touch the lives of seniors by delivering meals, but that’s not all. Volunteers brighten the day of isolated and lonely seniors and show them that they are not forgotten. A few hours a week or even one or two hours a month would help. Candidate must have a valid license and be able to pass a background check. If interested, please call 802/442-8012 ext. 4 and ask for Brian or stop in to pick up an application at 124 Pleasant Street, Bennington.
Brookdale Fillmore Pond-- Memory Care
Brookdale Fillmore Pond's Memory Care Unit is in need of volunteers that are comfortable with spending time with residents with dementia, particularly Alzheimer’s disease. Someone that is willing to be flexible from reading, playing cards, doing nails, gardening, reminiscing, and much more with residents. Also, if the volunteer had any hobbies that they would like to share with a resident that had the same hobbies in the past. It would benefit if the volunteer had some background knowledge of Alzheimer’s disease or interest in acquainting themselves with this population.
Students interested can volunteer as much or as little as they desire. Hours needed are Monday-Friday between 8:30am-5pm. There is NO TRAINING needed. Students will need to complete paperwork, a background check, as well as a tuberculosis test.
If you are interested, please contact Laura Peer, Program Coordinator at lpeer@brookdale.com or 802.447.7000
Here is a sneak peak at the events planned for Spring 2019!
