Volunteer Opportunities

Make a difference to seniors in your community

Reception & Resource Desk

If you are a great communicator, love to connect with people, are outgoing, and always have a smile on this will be a great opportunity for you. The Receptionist greets each member as they arrive at the Centre and manages the Reception & Resource Desk by answering the telephone, managing our daily lunch transactions, helping with information about the Centre and upcoming activities, as well as sharing community resources and programs of interest to seniors.

Kitchen Crew

If you like to serve others, love to connect with people, and enjoy food this is a great opportunity for you. Volunteers serve tea/coffee to members in the Today Café. They prepare and serve the daily lunch with a smile, as well as clean up. Kitchen Crew Volunteers have a Food Handler Safety Certificate.

Program Leadership

If you are creative, active, and love to create and manage activities and events, this is a great opportunity for you. Many of the programs at Spencer House are led by volunteers who come to the Centre to share their time and talent with the members. This is a great way for members of the community to connect with senior friends and neighbours around a variety of topics, activities, and events. Do you have a talent, gift, or experience you would be willing to share with a group? Come talk with us!

Phone Pals

If you are a good listener, enjoy chatting with people, and sharing stories, this is a great opportunity for you. Started at the beginning of the pandemic, volunteers continue to connect with seniors who are unable to get out often, or at all. This is especially important for many seniors who are not connected online and have a limited social network.
