Volunteering at Zion Park Manor 

Our residents enjoy the companionship of our many volunteers who help at Zion Park Manor. Zion Park Manor partners with many individuals, community groups and schools. This helps our elders to feel part of the greater community. Volunteers help prevent isolation and loneliness. They add new faces to the environment and add that extra hand. 

Volunteers assist with the many activity programs happening at the Manor, some like to help with tasks around the manor and others provide added activities like reading stories, playing music, serving ice cream or visiting, adding to the quality of life of our elders. Some volunteers make a weekly commitment and others commit to coming in less often. Some are with us for a semester and others have been volunteering for over 20 years! All of our volunteers play an important role in our Zion Park Manor community and each one is very special!
