Smile On Seniors

Smile On Seniors is a volunteer program dedicated to enriching the lives of local seniors, especially those living alone or in senior facilities. For seniors without family nearby, or whose families can't visit often, a caring visit from a volunteer can make all the difference.

Join now and be part of a beautiful and unique program in our very own community! Often it takes just minutes to change a person's entire week!

Smile On Seniors is a unique volunteer program, created to enhance the lives of local seniors. Many of us have parents or family who are seniors, living alone or in senior facilities, that would greatly benefit from a visit from someone who isn’t family. Family cannot always visit as often as desired, and some seniors do not have family.

And that’s where Smile On Seniors steps in.

S.O.S. is an innovative program that aims to meet the needs of the seniors within our community by connecting them with willing and capable volunteers as yourselves. It has been proven time and time again that consistent human interactions can greatly impact the quality of life of the aged, and those who interact with seniors are in the position to accomplish a tremendous amount.

The beauty of being a volunteer is that with just a minimal investment of time, you can dramatically change the life of another human being. You can part the curtains of loneliness and allow the sun to shine in. You can ensure that Grandmothers and Grandfathers who gave so much of themselves in their earlier years get to enjoy their senior years with the dignity, respect and gratitude they deserve. A society that reveres its elderly is a society that knows its own soul.

Be the change you wish to see in the world

Help us break the cycle of Loneliness. Prevent isolation. Make the golden years Brighter for Holocaust Survivors and seniors

We are looking to build upon our team of incredible volunteers. Bring your gift of time and service to seniors who will always be delighted to see you. Knowing that someone is giving of their time to share thoughts and feeling, to lend an ear, or to simply hold their hand is a reason enough for them to smile –all week long.
