Volunteering
People are always needed for a variety of volunteer jobs at the Senior Center. These positions offer the enrichment found by helping others. Without these dedicated individuals, we could not provide the variety of services and programs to the seniors in our community. Just give us a call, at 978-921-6017!
The Beverly Council on Aging is also a great place to complete your school internship. The seniors love meeting students and there is a great variety of opportunities. We have hosted students from Salem State College, Endicott, Gordon and North Shore Community College, and welcome more! Contact Director MaryAnn Holak to discuss further.
