Needs From: Volunteer United

Bristol Regional Speech and Hearing Center operates Bingo on Saturday and Sunday each weekend.  It provides income to off-set the expenses of running a not -for-profit speech and hearing center.  

We need volunteers to assist with running this event.  The location is 238 Euclid Avenue, Bristol, VA  24201.  Doors open at 3:00 p.m. and sessions begin at 5:00p.m.  Volunteers should plan on arriving around 3:00 and will be free to leave around 8:00.  It is an exciting and fun place to volunteer!

Volunteers must be at least 18 years old. 

Please note: This is NOT located at the Speech and Hearing Center.  It is near the intersection of Lee Highway and Euclid. 

Call 276-669-2393 if you need assistance locating us on Saturday or Sunday.  For more details, you may call 276-669-6331 during our regular business hours. 

The Village at Allandale in Kingsport is seeking compassionate volunteers who are interested in spending time with our residents across our three communities (independent living, assisted living, and memory care).

We are looking for individuals who would be willing to visit occasionally to offer simple companionship—conversation, sharing stories, or just being a friendly presence. Many of our residents greatly benefit from social interaction, and even short visits can make a meaningful difference in their day.

We are especially interested in connecting with individuals who enjoy building relationships with older adults and creating moments of connection and joy.

Volunteer visits are flexible and can be scheduled based on your availability. Whether you can visit once a week, once a month, or occasionally, your time is truly valued and appreciated.

If you are interested in making a positive impact in the lives of our residents, we would love to hear from you.

Providing a Link for Survivors (PALS) is actively seeking volunteers across our service area.  Can you be a friend?  Then you can be a PAL!  Volunteers are simply asked to make a weekly contact with their assigned brain injury survivor and then engage in a monthly get-together or community outing.  It's easy...just be a friend!

The PALS Program Manager provides training and on-going support to both volunteers and survivors.  If interested in more information, please contact Melissa Barnes, PALS Program Manager, at melissa@bisolutions.org or (540)344-1200.  Come join the fun...and make a new friend!

*Volunteers must be 18 or older and pass a criminal background check.

Our patient care volunteers go out and visit our hospice patients for brief periods of time.  Some of these patients have no one left to visit them and just a friendly face for conversation or to bring them a small snack, could mean the world to them. Please call or email to find out how to have an impact on someone nearing the end of life.  This feeling is life changing and rewarding.
