About this Opportunity

Imagine the joy of building a meaningful friendship and bringing sunshine into a senior resident's day. As a Special Friend at Lyngblomsten, you can do just that! Share laughter, conversation, and create cherished moments with a wonderful senior in our community. This rewarding volunteer opportunity offers flexible hours and the chance to make a real difference in someone's life and in yours!

As a Special Friend, you will be matched with a wonderful senior resident (average age 87!) for regular weekly visits. Here are some enjoyable ways you can brighten their day:

  • Engage in friendly games or enjoy refreshing outdoor visits (weather permitting).
  • Explore creative hobbies and interests together, fostering new connections.
  • Accompany your friend to our on-site cafe for a change of scenery and delicious treats.
  • Offer support with light tasks such as organizing their personal space, bringing them reading materials, or assisting with writing letters.
