Share laughter, create meaningful moments, and bring light to those living with memory loss. Volunteer with The Gathering at Lyngblomsten and make a tangible difference in the lives of participants and their caregivers.
The Gathering, Lyngblomsten's award-winning program, is seeking compassionate volunteers to join our team. Provide essential respite for caregivers, allowing them much-needed time to recharge, while you assist participants in engaging in enjoyable, staff-led activities that promote brain stimulation, including stimulating conversations, joyful musical moments, creative crafts, and heartwarming stories.
The Gathering runs Monday through Thursday from 9:30am to 2:15pm at our two locations: St. Paul (Como Neighborhood) and Lino Lakes. Our caring and experienced staff will provide you with thorough training. As a volunteer, you'll gain valuable experience working with individuals with memory loss, develop your communication and interpersonal skills, become part of a supportive team, and experience the deep satisfaction of giving back to your community.
