Description

Volunteers are the lifeblood of our Village! Not only do our volunteers provide the benefits and services to members that keep them connected, involved and safe in their own home, but volunteers ensure our Village remains a successful and viable organization capable of meeting the needs of its members.

We are most grateful for your interest in our Village! Volunteer opportunities are listed below. If there is a service that you would like to offer that is not listed below, please let us know. Once the application process is completed, we will invite you to an orientation and answer all of your questions.

Please note that our volunteers receive a criminal background check and a driver background check (for volunteer drivers only). The background checks are free and are conducted by Sterling Volunteers. You will receive a secure direct link via email from Sterling Volunteers. It is a simple 4 step process that takes less than 5 minutes; the background check is completed in as little as 12 hours.
