Hanover Safe Place hiring a case manager

Volunteer Money Management Needs Volunteer for Specific Client

Senior Connections coordinates a Volunteer Money Management Program which matches trained volunteers with older persons needing assistance to get their bills paid each month and their bank statements reconciled. There is currently a specific need in the Hanover area to assist an elderly woman with early dementia and her son who has some brain damage from being a victim of an attack. The son smokes quite a bit and does not like to have to go outside to do so. The woman needs help organizing her bills and getting them paid on time. This volunteer role would require only 2 hours or so per month, after her Social Security check comes in. The home is located just west of Rt 301 and just south of New Ashcake Road. Training and staff support would be provided under the program.

If you (or someone you know) might be willing to step forward as a volunteer bill-payer to serve this specific need or if you are interested in more information about Senior Connections’ Volunteer Money Management Program, contact Jean Adams at 804-343-3055
