Volunteer Opportunities:
1. Senior Health Insurance Program (SHIP) Volunteer - SHIP counselors are trained by the Illinois Division of Insurance to organize and assist in filing Medicare and Medicare Supplement claims and analyze Medicare supplement and long-term-care policies. Counselors also educate consumers and answer questions about Medicare and other health insurance issues. Volunteers must be 55 years & older.
2. Volunteer Drivers - Volunteers drive seniors to the grocery store, pharmacy or to personal care appointments.
3. Home Maintenance - Seniors can often use a helping hand with home maintenance work such as yard work, removing snow or minor home repairs. Volunteers can provide help on an occasional basis or commit to a regular visit.
4. The Friendly Visitor Program - This program matches seniors with a volunteer who visits on a weekly basis. The visit may include help writing letters, shopping, running errands, or simply a cordial visit and conversation.
