There are many opportunities for volunteers. Frequently, our residents need assistance with daily activities such as laundry, organizing rooms or things as simple as playing games or assisting with meals or cookouts. Residents also enjoy games, music and other types of activities. We have a specific need for volunteers at a September 20 fund raising activities. We are having a music concert benefit and need a number of volunteers to assist us on that date greeting guests, selling and preparing food and crafts as a fund raising effort. The concert is free, but we will be raising funds through the selling of food and crafts and we need volunteers to help us with all these efforts from approximately 3:00 p.m. through 7:30 p.m. on Saturday, September 20.
