Volunteers are needed at BFNC, Compeer and Schiller Park Senior Center!
Caregivers are family members or friends who typically provide unpaid, long-term,
community-based care and assistance to older adults and people with chronic
health conditions or disabilities.

A recent study conducted by the Rosalynn Carter Institute for Caregivers indicated.
that nearly 2 in 10 employed caregivers had to stop working, while 4 in 10 had to
reduce their working hours to care for a loved one.

When you volunteer, you’ll:
• Spend time and socialize with an older adult guest (participant)
• Participate in arts and crafts and other projects together
• Enjoy a free lunch with the group
• Ensure guest safely navigates to restrooms, and other spaces within the
building
• Assist with serving lunch and/or cleanup

The vaccine will protect them from the most common types of HPV. Everyone through age 26 years should get HPV vaccine if they were not fully vaccinated already.
