The Center for Volunteer Caregiving is a nonprofit organization serving Wake County. Our mission is to engage the diverse Wake County community by providing volunteer service solutions in an inclusive and welcoming environment to improve the lives of seniors, family caregivers and adults with disabilities. All of our services are provided at no charge by volunteers. We have three different programs that we use to assist seniors and adults with disabilities: transportation, in-home connections, and caregiver respite.
In-Home Connections volunteers visit seniors and adults with disabilities in their homes and on the phone who are isolated, offering support and friendship. Volunteers also can help around the house with some household chores and paperwork assistance. Volunteers are matched one-on-one with a care receiver. Volunteers set their own schedule and typically serve 4-6 hours a month.
