Volunteering at the Center for the Blind and Visually Impaired is a rewarding experience. At CBVI, volunteers are partners in helping individuals with blindness or visual impairment increase their quality of life. Some opportunities for volunteering include:

• Contribution Office Assistants – helping with clerical tasks related to agency mailings.
  
• Readers – reading mail for people in their homes or in the agency.
  
• Drivers – driving clients to medical appointments or helping with their shopping.
  
• Friendly Visitors – neighborly visits to people with vision loss.
  
• Escorts – for recreational activities.
  
• Fund Raising Projects – raising money for needed services.
  
• Staff Assistants – assisting blind or visually impaired instructors with clerical work.

Opportunities for volunteering exist in convenient locations throughout Delaware County. Depending on the service required, and the number of volunteers available, volunteer assignments may be continuous, short-term or “on call.”
