About this Opportunity
Games Galore and More is a team of volunteers who assist the staff of a long-term care senior facility with fun activities while engaging residents in meaningful and friendly conversation, board and card games and reading to the residents. This is a wonderful opportunity to brighten the life of someone who may normally not have the opportunity to connect with others outside of their families and the organization's staff. This is the perfect project for individuals, families, friends and loved ones. Volunteer today and let the games begin!

Party
Also, calling all musicians who would like to perform informally for the residents.
