Do you speak Romanian? Become a Friendly Visitor for an older adult in Astoria!

Queens Community House
New York, NY

Queens Community House (QCH) is a multi-site, multi-service settlement house that serves the diverse neighborhoods of Queens. We serve residents of all ages, races, faiths, and ethnicities while supporting the viability of the borough as a whole.

QCH was formed in 1975 (as Forest Hills Community House) to help heal the wounds of a neighborhood conflict. Over four decades, our reach and breadth have grown; today we offer a broad network of comprehensive services at 25 program sites in 11 different neighborhoods in Queens, allowing us to impact individuals, families, and entire communities.

,

Queens Community House is recruiting volunteers for our Friendly Visiting program, a program that matches home bound older adults with volunteers for weekly visiting to help create a mutual relationship and reduce isolation and loneliness among older adults in our community.

Friendly visiting is an enriching opportunity for the volunteer to develop a meaningful friendship. Together, the older adult and volunteer can discuss shared interests, learn/teach new skills, read books, learn technology, and celebrate special holidays.

We are currently in need of Romanian speaking volunteer for an older adult living in Astoria for in-person visits. Our client is 96 years old and would love to meet a kind, friendly visitor for in-person visits. Our client's interests include classic movies such as Casablanca, classical music and classic literature. Our client has a PhD in Economics & was a Director of Finances with the Romanian government.

Contact us if you would like to meet this wonderful older adult and share stories once a week for an hour! Email us at [email protected] for more information!
