Ways to Get Involved with Health S.E.T.
There are many ways you can get involved in supporting the valuable work that Health S.E.T. provides in the Denver Metro area to over 1,100 low-income seniors.
Health S.E.T. relies on over 35 volunteers each year to support our efforts in keeping seniors living in place and as independent as possible.
Volunteers serve as a much-needed resource to Health S.E.T. by providing countless hours of direct care and education to clients, making friendly visits, taking clients to medical appointments, or even picking up a client’s medicine. Volunteers allow Health S.E.T. the opportunity to continue providing high-quality services in a compassionate and healing manner to clients entrusted to its care. In return, volunteers are matched with clients according to their interests, where they live, and time commitment.
