During this dire time our senior citizens are the most vulnerable. Volunteer to be a phone-caller to help them stay connected, provide social support, and a sense of companionship during this time of increased social isolation and distancing. Learn about their essential needs and work with other volunteers to help arrange meal delivery, groceries, medications, and other care packages.
Our seniors deserve to stay in their homes and engaged in the communities they love. Westside Pacific Villages is making that happen.
WPV is not a retirement facility or caregiving agency. We are a non-profit organization coordinating a network of local volunteers to assist our members with everyday life.
To learn more about our volunteer opportunities, call (310) 695-7030 or email volunteer@thewpv.org.
