As part of their graduation requirements, California high school seniors are often required to complete a certain number of community service hours. We believe that this presents a valuable opportunity for local students to give back to their community while also enriching the lives of your residents.
By partnering with local high schools, aim to provide a meaningful and rewarding experience for seniors to volunteer at your care home. Students under 18 can participate in various activities without the need for a background check, making it a seamless and accessible opportunity for them to make a difference.
Here are a list of activities that high school seniors can lead for your residents:
1. Arts and crafts sessions
2. Bingo games

Together, you can create meaningful and memorable experiences for everyone involved.
