Welcome to Nashoba Neighbors!
Please contact us if you want to join our all-volunteer team!
How It Works
The model is simple. A Nashoba Neighbors member makes a request for a service, such as a ride to a social event or appointment, help with an errand, or assistance with a household activity. A volunteer signs up to fulfill the request then contacts the member to confirm the arrangement.
This creates opportunities to build new relationships, support one another, strengthen our community, and enable older adults to live more safely and independently in their own homes.
