Be a Coffee Talker

If you love chatting on the phone and the idea of connecting with a variety of older adults inspires you, join our Coffee Talk team!

Coffee Talk offers older adults the opportunity to call in and connect with a friendly volunteer for a caring conversation. There are no applications or requirements to participate. Older adults dial and connect just as they would if calling a friend.

Sign up for a weekly four-hour shift to offer words of encouragement, a listening ear, and great conversation. Calls will be routed directly to your phone and can be answered from wherever you and your phone happen to be. Great training and support are provided.

Time Commitment: One four-hour shift weekly for a minimum of six months.
Current hours of operation: Monday – Friday, 8:00 am-Noon.

Volunteers must be 18+, complete a background check and be available for one four-hour shift from 8-12, one day a week (M-F). This is a virtual volunteer opportunity with training and staff support provided. For more information about helping older adults take active steps in improving their overall wellbeing, please contact Emma at elucchesi@friendsco.org or 612-746-0746.
