Volunteer At The Nathaniel Witherell

Bring Joy and Companionship to our Senior Adults

Volunteering at The Nathaniel Witherell is more than just giving your time—it’s about building meaningful connections with individuals. The residents include retired teachers, nurses, firefighters, and other professionals. Many of them cherish the chance to share their stories, enjoy companionship, and engage in activities that bring joy to their days.

 

Whether you’re helping with recreational events, offering a listening ear, or simply spending time together, your presence makes a profound difference. Volunteering here isn’t just about giving back—it’s about becoming part of a community that values kindness, respect, and the power of human connection.

As one volunteer here said: “We get more than we give.”
