We are looking for dedicated volunteers who are ready to make a difference. A client in the Senior Shopper Program said: “There is not enough room to describe how highly I would praise my volunteer. Brie y, ‘she is a lifeline.’ I look forward to her weekly visits. She brings food and joy.” Another client in JFS’ Family Mentor Program told us, (my volunteer) “was a wonderful companion. We shared many good conversations. She was very helpful when I had bad days.” Volunteers consistently give feedback like “JFS’ program strength is that they provide responsive staff to support volunteers. I appreciate that a quali ed, experienced social worker is there for me –and for families.” You can check out all of our volunteer opportunities and learn more about JFS by going to our website and clicking “Volunteer” at the top of jewishfamilysvc.org.
