Annual Appeal 2004

The Caleb Group Annual Appeal is underway.  We would like to thank EVERYONE who has made contributions thus far, and have made it possible for us to continue our free and care–filled program.  Your generous support is needed and sincerely appreciated! All donations that are made in memory of a loved one are entered into Caleb’s Remembrance Book.

 

Always Caring – Always Sharing       

During the month of January, Caleb Volunteers donated over 280 hours and drove over 2700 miles to help elders in the eight towns served.  In February, Caleb Volunteers donated over 200 hours and drove over 2100 miles. Words cannot express our gratitude to the caring volunteers who give of their time to help the elders in their communities.

 

Volunteers Needed

What does a Caleb Volunteer do? Volunteer caregivers are carefully trained to assist the elderly in ways such as: errands, friendly visiting, shopping, light housekeeping, reading and writing, telephone reassurance, business tasks, transportation and resolving other needs. If you have a genuine concern for older individuals, and would like to become a Caleb Volunteer, please call The Caleb Group at 837-9179.
