About the Program

As in most societies around the world, caring for the elderly is left to social welfare institutions when their own families cannot care for them.  Many of the elderly care centers support those with disabilities, those who have been abandoned or have mental illness such as Alzheimer’s.

Volunteer work varies from day to day but focuses on personal interactions and stimulation with the residents, feeding, therapy needs, as well as light maintenance jobs like sweeping, cleaning. 

Our Mission

The  priority is attend cases of social risk, so we have been expanding our work for years

Our mission is to be an entrepreneurial nonprofit institution, to provide comprehensive service for the elderly in an efficient way: economic and timely and feel that despite their age have an important place in society.

The ages of the residents range between 67 – 111 years old!   The home seeks to distribute food, clothing and medicine to those in need whilst trying to keep an adequate standard of living for the elderly. It is necessary for staff to keep fully updated in regards to all safety conditions applicable to the elderly residents as there are a wide range of health conditions and each individual may have different requirements.

 We are known for provide the same quality of service for all the seniors who harbor without different and distinction between those who have or do not have resources.

Your Role as a Volunteer

The contribution that volunteers make is a solidarity contribution, which is used to keep all services provided by the institution.

Volunteers must be at least 17 years or older and no specific skills are required however flexibility and patience are very important as you will be working with Special people of different ages and levels of ability. A background or some knowledge of performing arts is an asset for this project, whether in dance, drama, or music. Any experience of teaching would also be an advantage but is not essential. You should keep a flexible attitude towards working in a new and a multi-cultural environment.
