- A group opportunity. Invite your friends.
We are partnering with local churches to offer respite relief for our caregivers while offering recreation and socialization to their loved ones!
We offer free training.
We will start in Ashland with a site at the United Presbyterian Congregational Church, which has generously donated its space for the program. We will need at least three people to run a shift from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. The day is not set yet.
We will offer a pre-packaged meal at lunchtime. There will be opportunities to help with craft projects, play cards, read to seniors, play games, put together puzzles, or do crosswords or word finds. Some days may offer the opportunity to take the group for a walk or go on the bus to the movies or historical society. Simple but fun activities to pass the time and be social.
Call for more information about volunteering or if your church would like to be a new respite site. Talk to Laura or Jana - 715-682-4414
