Seeking Vision Mate Volunteers in Campbell River!
Make a difference in the lives of blind or partially sighted people in your community!
The Vision Mate program matches people who are blind or partially sighted with sighted volunteers who provide companionship and one-on-one assistance with everyday tasks and activities. Vision Mate volunteers can assist individuals with running errands, going for walks, labelling, and organizing household
items, reading, or fun outings and recreational activities.
Matches are made with someone who lives close to your home, school or work. Visits are typically two hours a week in the person’s home or another suitable place at a mutually convenient time. We aim to match people for a minimum of six months, though there is no maximum time for a match to continue. Ideally, it will continue for years to come, as the Vision Mate relationship often transitions to friendship.
We are looking for volunteers with the following skills and attributes:
• Trustworthy, patient, empathetic and friendly
• Reliable, organized, and able to work with minimal supervision.
• Excellent interpersonal and communication skills
For more information about the program or about volunteering with CNIB, please see our Vision Mate volunteer recruitment ad here: https://www.cnib.ca/en/volunteer-opportunity/vision-mate-british-columbia?region=bc or contact us at 1-800-563-2642.
