Volunteer Opportunities

"My name is Charmayne Berry and I'm a student from Antonelli College. I chose Lincoln Crawford Nursing and Rehabilitation Center to do my externship. I truly enjoyed my time spent at the facility. I've met many interesting people with unique stories to tell. From the first day I started here, I felt welcomed and part of the Lincoln Crawford family."

We at Lincoln Crawford are appreciative of volunteers who give their time, talents and resources so residents can have quality living experiences. Chronic diseases and disabilities limit opportunities for our residents to be self-sufficient; thus, they are dependent upon others in the Greater Cincinnati area for social interaction, activities and resources.

Volunteers are needed to provide a variety of direct and indirect services. Please review our list of volunteer opportunities and let us know how you would like to assist. Either single or regular volunteer opportunities (weekly, monthly, quarterly, annually) can be arranged.

Please call to arrange for an interview. Volunteers will be asked to complete an individual or group application. Orientation and training will be provided as needed.

Thank you for considering a volunteer opportunity at Lincoln Crawford. Your time and talents are needed. We look forward to you being part of our volunteer program.

Simply print and fill out the Volunteer Application and forward it to Lincoln Crawford, Attn: Michael Mitchell to begin making a difference in the lives of our Residents.
