Ivan Franko Homes rely on our volunteers and the individual skills they bring with them. Whether you have 1 hour a week to give, or 10, you have the ability to make a difference in a senior’s life. Volunteering provides an opportunity to develop new skills and gain real world experience working with seniors in a health care setting. During your time as a volunteer, you will meet new people, build your network, connect with our community, create lasting friendships, and develop a sense of motivation. We will help you to find the right position to match your personality and skills. Giving even in a simple way can help those in need and enhance your personal satisfaction, happiness and health. Volunteering can combat depression, reduce stress, provide a sense of purpose and keep you mentally stimulated.
