In addition to receiving incoming calls our volunteers make routine outbound phone calls that provide emotional support, and well-being check-ins. For many depressed and lonely seniors, we offer a lifeline of hope. In every call, the goal is to help the individual feel safe and valued.

Here we are in the heart of the summer months lemonade and iced tea, porch swings, and summer breezes anyone need something to do with their time? Volunteers are the heart of every organization and WCCOA is no different! And we need YOU! Early in April we recognized all the adult volunteers of the Agency with dinner; however, that s not enough of a Thank You! as far as I am concerned for this giving group of individuals! It was fun, but what was even better, was the camaraderie exuding from everyone at this event. The smiles, the care and concern these volunteers give while doing home delivered meal routes or Governing Boards or rummage sales or gift shops or host/hostess at a site or an event, or or or! The list goes on! Everything seems to come from the heart! Feeling left out? We would love to have you join us for this event next year, but in order for that to happen however, YOU need to volunteer! I can be reached Monday through Friday at 419-353-5661, extension 1005; 1-800-367-4935, or by e-mail at jcmetz@wccoa.net.
