Shrewsbury Council on Aging is seeking volunteers to form a non-profit, 501(c)3 Friends of Outreach organization that will help support the Shrewsbury Council on Aging Outreach initiatives. The organization would conduct service projects and fundraising programs.
You do not have to be a senior to volunteer, in fact we would love it to be a multigenerational organization.
Friends of Outreach would work to promote social, emotional, and physical support to the Shrewsbury Seniors.
Outreach initiatives include:
- Wellness Programs (Are You OK?, Friendly Visitors)
- YAHOO- Young Adults Helping Others Out
- Home Repair Group
- Fundraising to support the need of fuel assistance, life long learning, and nutrition
- Connect & Assist
- Marketing the services and programs the Senior Center Provides
