Volunteer Opportunities

The Callahan Center professional staff coordinates volunteer opportunities for Framingham’s 55+ residents and younger people who want to engage with people 55+. The volunteer program is designed to help seniors by assisting them at home or the Callahan Center with a variety of tasks like attending programs, resident outreach, assistance using electronics, guidance on local resources available, help with yard work, sewing, crocheting, light gardening, minor home repair projects, transportation, translating documents or information and more.  

WHY BECOME A VOLUNTEER?

Volunteering not only helps others but also helps you, the volunteer. We, as humans, are designed to be social. As we age, many often find ourselves alone as friends and family pass on or move away. Human connections help us thrive. Volunteering gives you purpose and helps those in need. It’s a win/win! Being a volunteer is an enriching experience. 

At this time, we are not accepting new volunteer applications. We are deeply grateful to our current volunteers for the countless ways they support the Center and enrich the lives of older adults in Framingham.

Please check back in the future for opportunities to get involved.
