Volunteering with City Centre Care Society

“Volunteers Make A Difference!”

Did you know you can enrich your life and the life of a senior by becoming a volunteer at City Centre Care Society?

Volunteering is a great way to make new friends and share life experiences with others. It also helps to make our community a sharing and caring one. Volunteering can also contribute to your personal and professional development.

Volunteer Opportunities

Our volunteers fall into three categories: program volunteers, resource volunteers, and one-to-one visiting volunteers.

Program Volunteers - help to plan, assist or carry out program activities such as bingo, bowling, bus trips, sing-a-longs, games, outdoor walks, crafts, and more.

Resource Volunteers - are individuals or groups who can share their talents with our residents. Musicians, singing groups, dancers, slide shows, pet visits -- all of these can be worked into our regular programming with your help.

One-to-One Visiting Volunteers - are individuals who make personal, one-on-one visits with our residents. You may come to share an activity such as a walk, letter writing or to enjoy a game of cards. Often, just being a good listener provides the most support.
