“[The Caregiver Companions] are very friendly and helpful with my mother. The volunteers keep her busy by talking to her, which is a big help as they talk about different things than we do. They help us a lot so that we can make her life fuller, and with their help, we get to keep our mother at home with us. She looks forward to the volunteers with their friendly smile and friendship.”

“I can always count on [Caregiver Companion] and I’m certainly grateful for it too.”

“[The Caregiver Companions] have saved my mental health by giving me breaks to get out of the house. The companions have given my mom “company” (since she has no one – friends or relatives in this area). It is very possible that without the help of Caregiver Companion, I would not be able to keep my mom at home.”

“[Caregiver Companion is] very beneficial for the people who need help. They fill the gap that Social Services can’t take care of.”

“Caregiver Companion has made my daily challenges a lot easier. Every person I’ve met is very helpful and wants to help where they can. I can’t imagine life without their support.”

”Caregiver Companion has wonderful people who take time out of their busy lives to do for others. They go above and beyond what I have asked. They don’t do it because they have to, but because they want to. They make people feel like they are still worth something. We are not forgotten but still a part of this world.”
