Villages of Kensington (VoK) is an all-volunteer, non-profit Montgomery County Age-Friendly organization run by residents in the 20895 ZIP code. Our mission is to build a supportive, diverse, inter-generational network of neighbors helping neighbors to remain in their homes and stay engaged in their community. VoK offers two types of programming: Services and Social/Educational. The Services component is for those members (typically older adults) who may need a ride or help with home-related tasks. Our volunteers help members with rides to medical appointments, grocery shopping, and simple tasks around the house. The Social/Educational component entails developing and providing a calendar of fun social and educational events in the area.
We are flexible and can adapt your volunteer experience according to your interests and/or skills and time.
Your Volunteer experience could be deep such as joining the Board or a Committee and helping with the visioning and development of the organization or by providing professional support and advice.
Or it could be lighter and on an as-needed basis, such as driving someone to a medical appointment, shopping for groceries, or running errands.
Our volunteers do NOT need to be from the Kensington area.
