LAKE COUNTY – Have you been wanting to volunteer to do something rewarding within your community?

The Friendly Visitor Program of Lake County is a fantastic option, especially now, when so many state programs have lost their funding.

You will visit homebound, lonely or isolated seniors in their homes. You'll help bring “some of the outside in” by letting seniors know what is going on in around the lake, reminiscing about “whatever,” playing cards, helping them write letters or finding resources to assist them.

If you are interested in being a part of this most needed and rewarding service, please phone 707-995-1417 for an application and information regarding our orientation program.

Also, if you would like to refer yourself, a family member or someone else for this service, please phone Gwen Snyder at 707-995-1417 and she will return you call. This is a free service.
