OUR COMPASSION CREW HAS A PLACE FOR YOU
Are you looking for a meaningful way to get involved in the community, meet new people and create meaningful connections with others?
Résidence Despins is looking for people like you to connect with residents in our homes. Volunteers are a vital link to help co-create living environments where life is good!
From enjoying conversations and walks to sharing in hobbies and pastimes, as a volunteer, a wide range of opportunities exist for you. No matter where you volunteer within our community, you add meaning and joy to the lives of the people who live and work here. Whether you like connecting directly with residents or prefer to be behind-the-scenes supporting staff, we believe there can be a place for you in our Compassion Crew.
We are now taking new applications for volunteer opportunities starting in January 2024! To fill out a volunteer application please click here.
