Spiritual and cultural support is important for good quality of life and well-being for people living in Residential Care.

Some residents benefit from speaking in a language they are more familiar with, while others benefit from feeling spiritually connected.

Volunteers have many unique skills and life experiences that can help our residents to feel spiritually and culturally supported.

We want to hear from you if you can provide one on one support and companionship. This role requires the volunteer to speak fluent Croatian.
