Do you enjoy working with seniors?

Are you passionate about supporting seniors and facilitating connections between seniors and youth?

We would love to hear from you!

 

The Compassionate Neighbourhood Health Partners Society (CNHPS) hosts our Inter-Generational Program events on the second and fourth Tuesday of each month from 2:30 to 5:00 pm, where seniors and youth spend time connecting with each other through activities such as crafts, board games, etc.  We are looking for volunteers to help with a variety of tasks at these events, including:

  • Helping seniors from a vehicle into the venue when arriving, and back to their vehicle again when leaving
  • Welcoming guests and providing name tags
  • Serving refreshments

Volunteers can choose to help every time or with only one event per month.

 

Successful applicants will:

  • Agree to an interview by phone
  • Complete CNHPS’s orientation process (submit a volunteer application form, attend a virtual orientation session, complete a criminal record check, and sign volunteer consent forms)
  • Submit a clean criminal record check (can be completed online via the iVolunteer site, or contact us if you prefer to submit a paper copy to the local police station)
  • Live in Chilliwack or be willing to come to Chilliwack to participate in events
