"As you grow older, you will find you have two hands - one for helping yourself, the other for helping others," Audrey Hepburn. Volunteers are the heart and soul of River West Village. Everything we do wouldn't happen without you - the volunteers who contribute a little to a lot of time. The opportunities range from designing the bingo card for the picnic icebreaker or delivering a gift and having a porch visit to meeting with new members, training volunteers, hosting an activity, a weekly shift in our virtual office or driving someone to a medical appointment. As we head into the summer season, we are doing more in-person activities and outreach to bring new members and volunteers into our Village. Other volunteers are needed to provide services to members and with operations and administration. If there's something you enjoy doing as a volunteer, we need you. A few of our immediate needs include:
