Nature and Purpose of Agency
Lefrak Senior Center’s overall mission is to enhance the quality of
life for seniors in the Queens community with love, dignity and
respect. Volunteers are needed to help interact and
strengthen socialization of senior citizens in the Queens area by
participating in various activities.
Tasks Available for Students
Computer Assistance
• Several brand new computers were donated to
Lefrak Senior Center. Seniors would love help learning how to
email and perform basic Google searches.
General Companionship
• Play board games, ping pong, dominos, bingo and
various other recreational activities.
Fitness Assistance
• Conduct your own or assist with current
exercise courses being given at the fitness center.
Lunch Distribution

distribution.
New Programming

Therefore, if any volunteer would like to host their own activity

arts and crafts, etc.) simply ask Tammy.
