Volunteers needed, Helping Elderly Adults Remain in Their Homes

Montco project needs volunteers to work with seniors

Family Services’ Project HEARTH (Helping Elderly Adults Remain in Their Homes) is in need of dedicated volunteers to work with seniors living in Pottstown, Royersford and the Lower Perkiomen Valley.

Project HEARTH links elderly adults who are healthy enough to live in their own homes with special support services that help them to remain independent.

Volunteers must enjoy working with seniors and will offer compassion and companionship, as well as handyman chore services for minor home repairs and transportation services.  Individual and group volunteer opportunities are available during the day, evening and on weekends.  Volunteer drivers must have a valid driver’s license and insurance.

“Volunteering with Project HEARTH is not a huge time commitment,” said Aaron Shostak, volunteer coordinator, Project HEARTH.  “Our volunteers are caring people who just want to help an elderly neighbor.”

For more information, call Aaron Shostak at 610-326-1610 ext. 235 or email him at [email protected].
