Welcome
The Society of Sharing is a non-profit organization. Its purpose is to recruit, train and place volunteers to provide services to seniors and disabled persons by home visiting, telephone support, socialization groups and accompanying clients to appointments or on errands.

The Society assists isolated adults. Often, loved ones are left with very little human contact. Some of them may be people with physical disabilities who require various degrees of assistance. The Volunteer fills a very special and important role, by reaching out to the individual's need for both regular companionship and a sense of belonging and understanding.

Volunteers assist individuals that may be at risk living alone in the community and support caregivers. The volunteer provides consistent support and is a valuable member of a treatment team in situations where the client is also receiving services from other community-based organizations. This support promotes self-sufficiency and helps to extend independent living in the community.
