Volunteers

Volunteering @ WFIA

Care Receivers throughout our community live in their own homes, with their own belongings, and volunteers help to make it possible. Many of our care receivers have difficulty getting around. But volunteers are there to help. Ordinary people, just like you, who lead busy lives but want to help out in the community can make all the difference to a senior in need. Faith In Action brings people from both walks of life together. Faith In Action volunteers drive, shop, or just check in on those who live alone or have other needs. If you’ve wondered how you can touch lives in the community, volunteer with Faith In Action.


Your Neighbor’s Independence Depends on You! If you, a friend, or neighbor would like to volunteer, please fill out the application below or contact our office at 757-258-5890. When you volunteer for WFIA, we work with you to find assignments that best fit your schedule. WFIA is able to use whatever time you are willing to give. Here are just a few examples of how you can help.
