The mission of Jewish Family Services of Washtenaw County is to create solutions, promote dignity, and inspire humanity. Despite a misconception that no one is hungry in Washtenaw County, the rising cost of living in the area has created a high percentage of working people who live on the edge of poverty. No one should have to decide between nutritious food and paying bills such as medicine and rent. Marginalized groups and older adults are disproportionately the ones facing these challenges. Nourish Nutrition Services, powered by JFS helps bridge the gap for our neighbors in need.
As a Comfort Call Volunteer, you will make phone calls to older adults. Calls are needed to provide conversation and companionship to older adults.
This is a virtual role and does not require any in-person contact. Average hours required are 10 per week. Volunteers may sign up for shifts that meet their schedules.
Hours of operation are:
Monday - Thursday 9am - 5pm
Friday - 9am - 3 pm

Mission Statement
HUNGER FREE AMERICA is a national nonprofit group building a nonpartisan, grassroots membership movement to enact the policies and programs needed to end domestic hunger and ensure that all Americans have sufficient access to nutritious food.
Description
HUNGER FREE AMERICA (formerly known as the New York City Coalition Against Hunger) is a national nonprofit group building a nonpartisan, grass-roots membership movement to enact the policies and programs needed to end domestic hunger and ensure that all Americans have sufficient access to nutritious food.
Our long-term goal is not just to ameliorate the problem, but also to build the people’s movement necessary to enact the economic and public policies needed to end hunger entirely. Given that hunger drains our economy and tears at our moral and civic fabric, we know that eliminating it will boost the nation both economically and spiritually. Towards that end, we’ve adopted the motto: "Ending hunger lifts us all."
