Information for Volunteers
We are looking for people willing to provide a professional friendship by visiting or calling members of the Jewish Community once a week for 30 minutes minimum. During those visits, you will be contributing to giving someone a purpose in their day and something to look forward. Share your interests, hobbies or history, and learn something new. Jewish Care will provide full training.
