ORGANIZATION: SOCIETY FOR HANDICAPPED CITIZENS OF MEDINA COUNTY INC

  • 2 people are interested

The Society (for Handicapped Citizens) of Medina County serves adults with disabilities and we are currently in search of volunteers to visit our group homes (within Medina County) to do art projects/crafts with our individuals.

Are you creative and want to share your creativity with others? This is a great opportunity for someone who likes to DIY or just be creative to spend time with others, teaching, or just having fun being crafty. This volunteer opportunity would be suitable for an individual or group and could be a one-time visit or ongoing visits (weekly, monthly, quarterly). The opportunity is endless.

The volunteer(s) are expected to have their own transportation. Your own supplies are not required, as there would be opportunity to assist in activities already planned by our Activity Coordinator. However, a new/different craft or project is highly encouraged. All volunteers will be expected to maintain confidentiality and complete a volunteer application (prior to visiting our group homes).

The impacts of COVID-19 prevented many activities and volunteers from working directly with our residents over the past few years, and The Society is looking forward to inviting volunteers to work with our residents and staff once again. Whether you are an individual looking to share your time, expertise, and creative skills with us once or twice throughout the year, or a group interested in creating masterpieces with us on a regular basis, we would love for you to share your skills and time with us. This volunteer opportunity would impact the individuals we work with by providing them opportunities to think creatively, interact with community members and learn new skills. As well as provide staff with opportunity to focus on individualized care and other activities.
