Westchester Birthday Revelers
Everyone deserves to be celebrated on their birthday! If you are short on time, but big on heart, this is the special volunteer visiting program for you.
Location: DOROT (Westchester) In Home
Age Group: Adults 18+
Birthday Visits are a Gift of Connection
All year long, there are older adults in Westchester who would love to welcome a volunteer into their home during the month of their birthday. When you visit an older adult for their birthday, you will share smiles, memories, and maybe even a birthday treat. Whether you have an occasional hour or are available an hour every month, you will make someone’s day with a social birthday visit.
How it Works
Before each visit, you will stop by our White Plains office to pick up a birthday gift bag from DOROT, which includes a small gift item, a handmade birthday card, and two bite-sized desserts.
If you’re a volunteer who needs flexibility, this is the volunteer opportunity for you! Volunteers commit to one visit at a time. You can keep updated on upcoming birthdays with our special online portal and schedule a visit that works with your availability.
Volunteer as a Birthday Reveler to give the best birthday present—friendly company! We are sure the experience will be just as much a gift for you.
What a wonderful surprise to receive the beautiful afghan and treats. You made me feel special. I want to thank the charming volunteer who delivered the package too. She made my day!
