Do you have time to spare? Looking for something interesting to do? CREST currently has an urgent need for more volunteers. It’s an awesome opportunity to meet seniors and caregivers, plus brighten their lives & make new friends. Your time will make a difference in their lives and enhance yours as well. CREST volunteers do friendly visiting, home helper services, transportation, and minor home repair. We try to keep CREST volunteers to 1 assignment per week so all of our volunteers can be involved. If you would like more information, please call the CREST office at 507-235-3833.
