Volunteers Welcome!

There are many opportunities for volunteers to be involved at the Center. Our volunteers come from a cross section of our community. They are housewives, college students, business people, retired persons, teachers or part time workers.

The wonderful thing about volunteering is that it brings so much satisfaction and camaraderie…to you and to those you help. If you’d like to volunteer, or have ideas for programs you could lead, we’d love to hear from you. If you aren’t sure how you can help, our Volunteer Coordinator Joan McCabe at 294-3331 Ext: 408 volunteer@northkingstown.org can fill you in.

it is a true joy to honor Joan McCabe as our Volunteer of the Year for 2010. Everyone thinks that Joan is paid staff at the senior center because of the countless hours she spends as our 'Volunteer' Volunteer Coordinator.  Joan recruits and matches prospective volunteers to their assignments, as well as performing hours of volunteer service on her own.  Her devotion to the center and her volunteers is evident to all. Congratulations Joan!
