Are you interested in sharing 1-2 hours each week with someone who would like to socialize or get fit?
The CNIB is actively looking for volunteers to join our Vision Mate Program and make a difference in someone's life. Through this program, you would be matched with a someone who has interests similar to yours so that you could enjoy going to the gym together, gardening or going out for coffee and much more. In some cases, clients with vision loss may also need sighted assistance organizing their papers or baking.
We also have a virtual version of this program. Volunteers can connect by telephone or Zoom to socialize on a weekly basis with someone sharing common interests. This is a great way to reduce the isolation that we have been experiencing in the recent months.
Volunteers schedules can be very flexible. For more information, contact Denise at volunteerNB@cnib.ca or call 506-871-0657.
