Volunteer Opportunities
Conversations to Remember Virtual Visitor
Conversations to Remember, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit, offers a virtual opportunity for undergraduate students to aid lonely, isolated senior citizens living with dementia.
The virtual visit program matches teams 2-3 college students with older adults for weekly virtual video visits. Many of these older adults have been suffering from isolation; could really brighten their days just by speaking with them.
Students on virtual visits initially volunteer one hour per week, and each call lasts up to one hour, based on the senior's attention span and mood on each day. Students select the times that work for their schedule, and are matched with older adults for calls based on the times when they're available. They then have regular, weekly appointments for their visits. You are expected to volunteer for at least 16 weeks, so that you can develop friendships with the senior you're matched with.
Mandatory training is provided to all volunteers about the best ways to interact with the older adults on video calls. Additional regular support is provided throughout your service. All training is online. No travel is required. This program is free for seniors and students across the country. Volunteering does not need to coincide with the start of a semester, as we have new virtual visits starting all the time.
Students wishing for opportunities that allow them to volunteer more hours can be accommodated with other volunteering options, such as assisting us with our social media, call support, outreach, or more. List of Current Volunteering Roles.
We often receive requests to include our virtual visits as possible options for service learning, internships, practicums, class projects, or extra credit. Internship and Service Learning Considerations
