What we do:
Through the Senior Companion Program the lives of volunteer companions and individuals in York County who are homebound and need limited assistance to live independently are mutually enriched.
How we do it:
The program is designed for financially qualified individuals aged 55 or older with access to transportation who want to augment their income while helping others 15 hours per week. Volunteers receive a tax free stipend, mileage reimbursement and vacation and sick leave. In addition, they receive 40 hours of paid orientation and training, plus monthly in-service trainings to enhance the volunteer experience.
