At
Broadway House, volunteers are important members of the organizational
team and are carefully placed in assignments that best match their
interests, skills, past experiences, and availability. Volunteers
are needed to assist the residents in areas of socialization by
tutoring, playing games, and making room visits to simply talk
and
spend quality time with the residents. Volunteers are also needed
to help with clerical responsibilities including typing, filing,
and mailings. Our location is easily accessible for volunteers
and
ample supervised parking is available at no cost. Broadway House
also provides 24-hour security guard supervision.

Broadway House for Continuing Care Honors Volunteer with President’s Volunteer Service Award
Established in 2003, the President’s Volunteer Service Award is available on an annual basis to individuals, groups and families who have met or exceeded requirements for volunteer service and have demonstrated exemplary partnership through volunteering. As one of thousands of Certifying Organizations participating in this award program, Broadway House for Continuing Care confers the award to recognize the outstanding achievements of its volunteers.
Broadway House
for Continuing Care recently awarded Adam Baginski with the Bronze
President’s Volunteer Service Award. Baginski is a Junior
at St. Peter’s Prep High School in Jersey City and a resident
of Glen Ridge. In 2005, Baginski completed over 100 hours of
volunteer service at Broadway House to qualify for this award.
As a volunteer he assisted residents with many leisure activities
including bingo, card games, and the candy store. “My favorite
thing to do was talk with the residents. They would tell me their
problems and I liked to be the person they could count on,” said
Baginski. Besides volunteering, Baginski participates in his
high school’s math, history, golf, and swim teams. “Each
volunteer hour he contributed makes a difference in improving
the quality of life for our residents, and I encourage everyone
to contribute to our community by volunteering.” James
Gonzalez, President & CEO Broadway House.
