Volunteer Drivers
Could you spare a couple of hours to give someone a ride to a medical appointment or run an important errand?
We’re looking for volunteer drivers to assist older adults in Lake Country and Kelowna. By offering your time, you can make a positive impact in someone's day and ensure they get to essential appointments.
​
Volunteers can set their availability, with each ride typically taking about 2 hours.
​
You will be reimbursed for fuel expenses.
Friendly Visits & Calls
Do you like to chat?
You can brighten someone’s day with just one phone call. To reduce the social isolation that many older adults may experience, Friendly Visit and Call volunteers are asked to provide a check-in and chat with a local older adult. This service aims to provide support, and companionship to older adults whose social circles may be limited.
Time commitment: 2 hours per week
Tech Angels for Older Adults
Help older adults in Lake Country with their tech issues and questions.
The goal of this role is to empower older adults by enhancing their confidence in using technology. By teaching them how to navigate their devices and various programs, we help reduce social isolation and make everyday tasks easier.
Time commitment: 2 hours per week
Content Creators
Interested in creating posts for TikTok and YouTube?
​
Help us create social media posts on safer drug or alcohol use, and other teen-focused topics. This is a great opportunity for students interested in counseling, outreach, or marketing careers.
​
Time commitment: 2 hours per week
Silver Sitters
Silver Sitter volunteers provide informal respite by spending time with older adults in need of care, giving their caregivers a chance to participate in our programs or take a break from their responsibilities. Volunteers can enjoy activities such as having coffee, playing board games, making crafts or simply reminiscing—whatever the older adult prefers.
​
Time commitment: 2 hours per week
