Opportunity Details

Games Galore and More in Hanover

Games Galore and More is a team of volunteers who assist the staff of a long-term care senior facility with fun activities while engaging residents in meaningful and friendly conversation, board and card games and reading to the residents. This is a wonderful opportunity to brighten the life of someone who may normally not have the opportunity to connect with others outside of their families and the organization's staff. This is the perfect project for individuals, families, friends and loved ones. Volunteer today and let the games begin!
