Summer is flying by, and the days have been HOT!
But the heat hasn’t slowed us down we’re busier than ever! As temperatures rise, so has the number of people utilizing our services, which is fantastic. However, with more clients to serve, we need more volunteers to keep everything running smoothly. If you or someone you know have a little extra time, check out the volunteer opportunities below:

Substitute

If you’re available to help with any of these roles, please contact our Volunteer Program Manager, Janine Jackson, at 509-735-1911 or volunteerprogrammanager@seniorliferesources.org.
We are endlessly grateful for our volunteers. Without you, we simply couldn’t serve so many people in our community. THANK YOU!
