About This Opportunity
We are looking for volunteers to be matched one-on-one with adults with an intellectual disability. The matches would meet in-person or virtually with hopes that they could eventually meet in person. We have matches doing various activities in Zoom: chatting, playing games, sharing videos and music. We have matches doing various activities in-person: attending sporting events, movies, volunteering together and meeting for coffee/chat etc. The commitment would be as much as once a week for about an hour or some meet once or twice a month. Every person has different abilities and interests, we aim to match you with the right person!
