Volunteers needed

Have you ever been described as “not knowing a stranger”? Do you enjoy making new friends? One area nursing facility needs your help as it brightens the days of its older adult residents.

Friendly and compassionate volunteers are needed to visit with older adults at Oakley House in Greenville. Chat with an older adult and bring a smile to his or her face by just being yourself! This opportunity, available to volunteers who are at least 16 years old, is available every day of the week.

“Oakley House Assisted Living is a great place to share your time and talents with truly wonderful people,” says Bridget Sharp, Oakley House Residence Director. “If you are looking for a place that cares not only about the residents but also about everyone who walks through our doors, then please think about spending some time with us at Oakley House.”

To learn more about this volunteer opportunity or other opportunities within our community, please contact HandsOn West Central Ohio at (937) 548-8002, ext. 211, or visit www.handsonwestcentralohio.org. HandsOn West Central Ohio, including Retired and Senior Volunteer Program, is a program of Council on Rural Services. This program receives funding from Darke County United Way, Corporation for National Service, Area Agency on Aging, PSA2, Darke County Commissioners, Lydia E. Shaurer Trust, Harry Stephens Trust, Greenville Rotary Club and the Darke County HOPE Foundation.
