As Arizona’s snowbirds head north for the summer, Benevilla is calling on local community members to step up and help fill the seasonal gap in volunteer support. The nonprofit organization, known for its vital services supporting older adults, adults with disabilities, and caregivers, is in urgent need of compassionate and dedicated volunteers during the summer months.
Benevilla offers a wide variety of volunteer opportunities to match different interests and schedules — from supporting adult day programs to providing friendly visits and transportation assistance for seniors. These programs are essential to maintaining the quality of life for many in our community, and volunteers play a crucial role in delivering them.
“As a former teacher, I know firsthand how rewarding it is to work with people and give back to your community,” said Ben Andree, Director of Marketing at Benevilla. “Teachers and school staff make incredible summer volunteers. They have a heart for service, valuable experience, and often more flexibility during the summer. It’s a great opportunity to stay connected, develop new skills, and make a meaningful difference.”
Whether you’re a retiree, a college student home for the summer, or simply someone looking to make a positive impact, Benevilla welcomes you to join their volunteer team.
