Elder Care Services truly believes that volunteers are at the heart of our organization. The Senior Volunteer Program provides seniors 55 years of age and older the opportunity to fill numerous community needs, while keeping themselves active and engaged. Elder Care Services staff links volunteers to a wide variety of service activities in the 15-county area of the Big Bend. Senior Volunteers use their experience to tutor and mentor children, distribute food at food distribution sites, provide essential travel to other seniors, and serve the frail elderly and persons with disabilities in their home, among other service activities.
