The County of Simcoe is encouraging residents in Collingwood, Ontario, to support local seniors by signing up for volunteer roles at Sunset Manor through its centralized online volunteer portal. The system aims to make it simpler for community members and students to find ways to give back to their community.
There are several different positions available for those interested in helping at the home. Volunteers can sign up for friendly visiting, helping residents during meals, or supporting various group programs and student placements.
The online portal includes an application form that can be filled out directly on the county website. By choosing the specific home in Collingwood, residents can connect with the programs that help seniors stay active and social in their daily lives.
Cindy Harvey is the Program and Support Services Supervisor at the home. She is the main point of contact for anyone looking for more information about the application process or the specific roles available.
