If I can do something for th senior and the society that would be my pleasure. And I'm willing to help more people
After providing the "donation", I contacted six numbers. One was non-working, two others answered as the same NAME, but were definitely not the people listed as volunteer. Three others never returned calls. There is NO PHONE number for ElderHelpers to speak with someone. I Sent an email to which I got an automated, "we'll respond in 2 business days" and a week has gone with no reply but daily marketing emails. In theory, this is a fantastic idea but my conclusion is it's either fraudulent or horrifically managed.

It's been purposed in my heart to give back to the community through volunteering! I am so happy to have found this site and hope to have a family reach out to me for help with their elderly loved one(s).
It was easy to sign up!
I just enrolled today! I read about it on Google and signed up right away. I am excited to start helping the elders and their family, and share my happiness with them.
It was very easy to sign up to be a volunteer and I look forward to the experience in helping those who need my help or assistance.
Excellent experience. I am enrolled, trained, excited about Elder Helpers, and ready to start helping elders, families.
I am registered and trained, excited about ElderHelpers and ready to start helping elder and their families at.
I can't wait to put all of my heart and soul into this volunteer program and I'm also extremely happy to start helping out in any way that I can.
I am a college student at the University of Toledo studying chemical engineering. I am looking forward to potentially assisting with any help needed, including visiting any senior member who is lonely.
Being raised by my grandmother and grandfather, I know that life as the years come can be difficult if the proper care and resources are not provided to the elderly. Living alongside them and meeting their needs was always a primordial task for me, one that I hope to be able to share with other in need.
Over the past year I have work alongside a legal environment which advocates for the needs of the elderly in order to prevent abuse, neglect, and loss of life. It would be an honor to assist in any way that I may using the life-long knowledge and expertise I have acquired in order to meet the needs of those whom may not be able to help themselves as much as they used to.
Once I learned my way around on the site, I was able to contact several volunteers and coordinate schedules so that they could fill in being with my husband in memory care. The monthly donation is minor compared to the hourly fees that must be paid for people to companion our loved ones. I lucked out with volunteers who were devoted to being of help and came through for my husband and me time after time. I highly recommend this website and this service.
I use to visit this lady named Pearl with my dog every Sunday for few hours whatching some classic movie ( her tv was always on that channel) actually i was watching, she was blind, but just seeing her so happy and content patting my dog belly for hours was such a fulfillment. Unfortunately she passed away, but i would gladly help any other seniors who would need help.
Thank you elders helpers!
I signed up with ElderHelpers to get involved in my community, get to know an elder who may need companionship and support, and contribute my time and energy to making their lives better. ElderHelpers is very organized and professional. They offered a helpful training and took careful consideration when pairing me with an elder to ensure that the relationship would work from both ends. I highly recommend getting involved.
AmazIng experience so far can't wait to meet friends

Immediate response back. They're involved with getting you involved with their multiple services that fit your ability and time that you can bring to the table... so to speak.
I think this is a great opportunity for lives to be be enriched through different generations; to add benefit to lives of so many and to offer assistance through care and small tasks.

Elder Helpers is a user-friendly, web-based service. We believe that compassion at its finest is free. Volunteers register to offer their services based on their true desire to help elders. Elder Helpers strives to safely and conveniently connect these dedicated, passionate volunteers with elders in their local communities. We are a tax exempt organization and the contributions cover our operating costs. Our volunteers are true volunteers. For a tax deductible monthly donation of $50, you can contact as many volunteers as you would like, to ask them for as much help as you would like. We do screening and background checks and our website makes it convenient for you to locate volunteers where you need them and get to know them and the help they are willing to offer. Enjoy the safety and convenience of elderhelpers.org!
We are not supported by any government money. Solely volunteers, elders and their relatives help us pay for the technology and people making this service possible. Contributions from volunteers, training packets delivery, contributions from elders and relatives are handled by a third party meeting the best industry standards and is subject to change. Background checks are handled by www.IntelliCorp.net, a Verisk Company. We recruit our volunteers in reputable places and carefully screen all users. This service is new and innovative, we strongly encourage any visitor of this page to educate themselves by reading our FAQs at www.elderhelpers.org/faq and contact us via email for more information. Thank you.
Elderhelpers.org started in May 2010 to match volunteers with elders in need of help within their own community.
In the middle of June 2015, we have decided to stop offering a refund policy since it was rarely respected by our users. We switched to a third party meeting the best industry standards to offer tax deductible donation receipts, easy cancellation, and increased security.
We now only let informed people about our service (having read our FAQs carefully, and checked our listings of volunteers themselves) join our community. Each user gets access to our safe and convenient service for a small monthly contribution. We do not offer refunds anymore. There is no more subscription, monetary contribution is now considered a donation. And it is tax deductible!
People joining our community are asked to be patient, nice to our volunteers, and to report wrong and disconnected phone numbers to us, which is the only way that we can keep a database clean and up-to-date. This website is user supported: volunteers give their time and when they can donate money, elders and their relatives participate fifty dollars a month, and report their results to benefit the entire community of users.
