Volunteer Overview

Community SeniorServ volunteers provide a vital network of caring friendship and support to frail older adults living independently in the OC community. Our team of over 650 volunteers generously gives a combined total of over 9,000 hours monthly to support our services while enhancing the welfare of homebound and isolated seniors living in their neighborhoods. As the senior population increases in number, so does the need for more dedicated volunteers to help prevent malnutrition, loneliness, and premature institutionalization of Orange County’s older adult population.
