Current Volunteer Needs

You can make a difference! Volunteers just like you share their time and talents and change lives here at COA. Here are our current volunteer needs:

IMEP (Anastasia) – Our Integrative Memory Enhancement Program at the Anastasia campus needs volunteers on Tuesdays from 8:30am to 12:30pm and Wednesdays 9:30am to 12:30pm (consistent/ongoing/weekly).

Meals on Wheels Drivers (Seasonal & On-going) – We have two routes available for volunteer drivers interested in summertime and ongoing opportunities. Our drivers for residential deliveries will pick up meals on the mornings of their designated day(s) between 9am and 10:30am at our 180 Marine Street location. Delivery routes can take about 1.5-3 hours to complete. Available routes: Old Moultrie/St. Augustine South on Fridays starting July 10th and West St. Augustine on Fridays starting June 26th.

Care Connection (Office Assistant) – An office assistant with strong attention to detail is needed to help with answering phones and data entry for our Care Connection Department on Thursdays from 9am to 12pm. This volunteer should have the following skills: strong interpersonal, written, and verbal communication, ease interacting with individuals over the phone and in person, and an understanding of computer usage including Microsoft Word and Google applications.

Coastal Community Center (Coffee Bar & Front Desk) – Our Marine St. senior center is looking for volunteers to help at the front desk and serve coffee to our participants this summer, weekdays from 8:00am-10am (seasonal opportunity.) You can volunteer one day a week or multiple days a week! This is an urgent need.

Meals on Wheels (Substitute Drivers) –We have a need for substitute driver volunteers this summer for Meals on Wheels deliveries who are willing to do any route and have a flexible schedule, including delivering meals to our Hastings Senior Center as needed (at 11am Mondays, Wednesdays & Fridays). Our substitute drivers for residential deliveries will pick up meals on the mornings of their designated day(s) between 9am and 10:30am at our Marine Street location. Delivery routes can take approximately 1.5-3 hours to complete.

Cutters & Clippers – Our Care Connection program is looking for interested volunteers to assist with 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.

We hope you will take advantage of these opportunities to fill your free time while helping others and making a difference in their lives!
