Appointment Buddies Needed!


Appointment Buddies is a program that matches volunteers to our senior clients. Volunteers are expected to assist a senior client in traveling to and from various appointments. This program aims to offer assistance and support to our senior clients. By providing a volunteer to travel with our clients to their appointments, Met Council is assured that they are receiving the care that they need. It is often a challenge for seniors to travel to and from appointments, and they are often forced to rely on inconsistent services that may get them to their appointments hours before they begin. By participating in Appointment Buddies, the client will have a Met Council volunteer to travel with and get them to their appointment safely and at an appropriate time.

If you are interested, please contact Malwina Andruczyk at 212.453.9526 or mandru@metcouncil.org for more details.
