Sunshine Center (Piano/keyboard player)–Our adult day care center could use a skilled pianist/keyboard player every other Monday from 1:15-2:30pm. Please come and share your talent with us!
Sunshine Center (Adult Day Care Activity Assistant) – Starting in October, we need a volunteer to assist staff with group activities such as reading, assistance with games, crafts, chair exercise, serving lunch and cleaning tables. The volunteer acts as an extra set of hands and eyes to assist a group of wonderful participants who have developed memory loss and some confusion. Days and times of opportunity: Fridays (full or half days available) @ 9:30am-1pm or 1pm-4pm.
IMEP (Anastasia campus, urgent need)–Our Memory Center at the Anastasia campus needs volunteers on Wednesdays from 9:30am to 12:30pm (consistent/ongoing/weekly). Come and be a part of a wonderful program that gives participants a sense of purpose, boosts self-confidence, and improves cognitive functioning.
IMEP (Ponte Vedra) – Our Memory Center in Ponte Vedra needs volunteers on Mondays from 8:30am to 12:15pm (consistent/ongoing/weekly). Duties include assisting with a variety of activities, ranging from word agility challenges to trivia and math games, along with gentle stretching, chair aerobics, and a guided relaxation period.
Cutters & Clippers–Our Care Connection program is looking for interested volunteers to assist in basic lawn care and maintenance on Thursdays 8am-12pm. This kind of service helps local seniors remain in their own homes where they are most comfortable, rather than being compelled to enter assisted living for lack of assistance.
