Do you have extra time? Would you be willing to use some of it to help better the life of an older adult in our community? Two local organizations that support older adults are in need of volunteers. And, we couldn’t provide our services without the help of our volunteers. The benefits of volunteering include: meeting new people/making new friends; learning new skills and keeping your brain active; giving back to your community; and having fun!
TMC is a non-profit community hospital with a department devoted to education, socialization and support for older adults. TMC for Seniors provides these free activities and much more for the public in a non-clinical environment. We are looking forward to opening our doors to attendees again and will need additional volunteers on our team to do this. Please take a look at the TMC for Seniors list below and call (520) 324-1960 to let us know if you are interested in volunteering in any of these positions or have any questions. We look forward to hearing from you!
Administrative Support
- This is a front office position that is perfect for someone who is comfortable with computers and programs such as Microsoft Word… and willing to learn how to use new programs. These volunteers will also answer our phone, greet visitors and assist them with their needs.
Book Club Facilitator
- We have a wonderful book club in need of a facilitator (or two). Ongoing for over 15 years, this book group meets for two hours once each month. Facilitators should love to read and talk about books and be willing to help organize which books will be read.
Walking Club Ambassador
- Every other week when the weather is temperate (Oct – April) our walking club takes sets off from our office on an brisk walk around TMC for approximately an hour. Our walk ambassadors socialize with the walkers and help us to make sure walkers are safe during the walk.
