“Volunteers do not necessarily have the time. They just have the heart.”
Elizabeth Andrew
We are so thankful for our volunteers and their commitment to our mission. Our volunteer programme is a way for people to invest their skills, minds, and hearts in support of society’s most vulnerable — our elderly. As a volunteer, you have the opportunity to gain a sense of purpose knowing that you are touching the lives of those in need. Every task, no matter how small, has a significant impact on the lives of those served by the AgeWatch team.
Why Volunteer?
Volunteering is not only good for your community, but it’s also good for you! Research shows that volunteering improves your wellbeing, makes you feel happier and healthier, reduces your stress, and increases your sense of purpose.
