Volunteer Program
Caring and Sharing with Skills and Interests

King-Bruwaert volunteers discover great personal joy in donating their time, skills, talents and gifts to senior adults who enjoy personal attention, socialization, discussions, walks and daily activities. Our residents enjoy the contact they have with volunteers, just as they do when visiting with family members, friends or members of the clergy.

For those considering an opportunity for volunteerism, we offer a flexible schedule, encouraging a minimum of two hours a week in an area of interest. Our volunteer orientation program consists of a building tour, patient care introduction and an overview of house policies. Morning, afternoon or evening hours may be arranged for volunteer service. Men, women and junior high or high school students are welcome to become part of our friendly volunteer network.

VolunteersVolunteers enjoy special privileges at King-Bruwaert House. Lunch or dinner is provided to volunteers on their assigned days. For volunteers accompanying residents on group outings or field trips, King-Bruwaert House pays the corresponding activity or parking fees.

Each year all King-Bruwaert volunteers working a minimum number of hours are invited to a recognition luncheon where our staff recognizes their vital contributions to our retirement community. We appreciate their dependability, enthusiasm, honesty and integrity - hallmark qualities of our own professional staff.
