As we begin a new year, we would like to sincerely thank those individuals who volunteer in our communities. We recognize them for giving their time and talents to help enrich the lives of everyone at Heathwood Assisted Living. Volunteering at Heathwood has many benefits for residents and the volunteer. We invite anyone looking to in volunteering in the community to see how Heathwood is the right place for you.

Do you play a musical instrument, enjoy making crafts or playing cards? Then Heathwood is a good place to volunteer. Every volunteer's talent is welcome to share with the residents at Heathwood. Our volunteers include a connoisseur in classical music, story tellers and gifted craft makers. At Heathwood in Williamsville, our volunteers manage the lovely gift shop putting their professional management skills to work to raise funds to support community activities.

At Heathwood Assisted Living, we know residents also really value companionship of others. This is something many people can offer by coming in to visit, participating in activities and just spending time with residents. We are always in need of card players, especially for everyone's favorite game, Bridge. We also welcome volunteers to join us on our fun and exciting trips to concerts, the lakes and of course, Wegmans!

We would also like to thank organizations in the community, including local churches that have voluntarily sent people to perform church services, and schools for entertaining our residents with student performances. Scouting troops are always welcome to visit and share their talents too!
