Volunteer Opportunities

Donate your Time

Do you have special skills, such as carpentry, plumbing, electrical and other skills that can help our seniors with renovation projects? Register with the VAC so that if the need arises, we can count on you to help. If you are retired, were you a professional in the working world with accounting, legal, sales, marketing, fund raising, grant experience? Your skills would be very valuable in our fund raising and administrative needs.

Donate Supplies

Our “Chores” program is always in need of pressure treated materials to build ramps, extended porches, etc. to provide safer access to our seniors' homes. Twice a year, the VAC undertakes larger renovation projects that require an expanded need for supplies; therefore, donations of Gift Cards to Home Depot, Lowes, Walmart and Target would be greatly appreciated.

Donate for the Holidays

Every year, the holidays bring many opportunities to help our seniors through the “Adopt a Senior” program and extra help with the Meals on Wheels volunteers. If you have special organizational skills and like to help our seniors, contact Diane Voss at 678-269-6677 or This e-mail address is being protected from spambots.

Support our Fund Raising Efforts

Every year, our Annual Gala is the biggest fund raising event and critical to support the many programs of the VAC. The event provides great entertainment, food, fellowship and the opportunity to support the VAC with the popular Live and Silent Auction.

Social Luncheons

Each quarter, the VAC partners with a local independent, assisted living or nursing home to bring fellowship to our senior population. All proceeds go to the VAC special projects fund to support our Annual “Give Seniors a Lift” or other related programs.
