In response to the needs of the isolated homebound elderly in Westchester County, DOROT Westchester was launched in 2004 and now offers the following programs:
›› Shabbat Shalom Westchester: Volunteers pick up a Shabbat package (challah, grape juice, candles) from the home of a volunteer host, deliver the package to a senior's home, and stay for a friendly visit.
›› Telephone Friends: Modeled after DOROT’s Friendly Visiting program, Telephone Friends matches volunteers with homebound seniors for weekly supportive phone calls.
›› Youth Volunteer Programs: In addition to Holiday Package Deliveries and Family Circle, these include specially tailored opportunities for individuals, schools, and community groups.
For more information about DOROT programs for seniors or volunteers in Westchester, or if you know of someone in Westchester who needs assistance, please call Melanie Kane, LMSW, at 914-674-9129.
DOROT Westchester is funded in part by: United States Department of Health and Human Services New York State Office for the Aging Westchester County Department of Senior Programs and Services
