Volunteer - Grafton

Life is in the moments.
At Whiddon we believe every moment counts—especially the ones spent enriching lives, making meaningful connections, and creating memorable experiences.
Just an hour a week - or as much as you like - is all it takes to create these moments with others.
We're looking for passionate volunteers to join our team at Grafton and make a real impact in the lives of those we serve.

Paw-sitive Companions: Bring your friendly, well-behaved dog to visit residents and create emotional connections through pet therapy and unconditional love.
