Philadelphia, Pennsylvania
StudentsCare provides a variety of volunteering offerings for college students in Philadelphia, PA. Our organization offers both hospital volunteer programs and elder volunteer programs, allowing college students to make a meaningful impact in their community.
Through our Hospital Buddy Program, students have the opportunity to support pediatric patients. Partnering with hospital staff, we pair college students with young patients to help alleviate the emotional effects of long-term hospitalization.
Additionally, our Senior Buddy Program allows students to engage with older adults in assisted living facilities, providing companionship, and fostering meaningful intergenerational connections. Through this program, we help reduce social isolation and loneliness, improving the overall well-being of the residents and the community.
Whether you choose to volunteer with children in hospitals or with older adults, StudentsCare empowers you to develop valuable skills, gain firsthand experience, and make a positive difference in the lives of others.
