Spending time with the elderly is worthwhile and rewarding. There is always a need for young volunteers—both male and female, high school and college age—here at our Home. Our Residents enjoy having young visitors!
Youth service options include:
Assisting Residents in wheelchairs to get to and from daily Mass.
Helping to serve meals to our Residents.
Playing cards and other games with the Residents.
Adding new faces and extra one-on-one attention for Residents during parties, Bingo and field trips.
Helping in the linen room folding small items.
Providing music and entertainment—our Residents always enjoy performances by school groups and individuals.
Youth groups or school classes could sponsor a bingo party or another special activity.
The Hospitality Club is a great opportunity for young women ages 12–17 to share their contagious joy and youthfulness with the elderly. The group meets one Saturday each month between 10 a.m. – 3 p.m.
Each Saturday meeting includes:
Mass with the Residents and Little Sisters.
Serving the Residents their noon meal.
Sharing a meal and fellowship with the Little Sisters and each other.
Activities with the Residents in the afternoon.
Hospitality Club members also help out with holidays and special events.
