Welcome! Thank you for considering sharing a part of your holidays with Little Brothers – Friends of the Elderly!
LBFE is a volunteer-based nonprofit organization committed to relieving isolation and loneliness among older adults in the Twin Cities area since 1972. Through the generosity of our supporters and dedicated volunteers – like you - LBFE helps isolated elders stay socially engaged through one-on-one home visits, group activities and holiday events, while also providing advocacy and referrals.
As an LBFE holiday volunteer, you will bring joy and connection into elders’ lives during a season when loneliness is most deeply felt. You will also be helping to decrease health risks that their isolation often brings. Through your generous gift of self, we are confident that you will come away with a deeper appreciation of elders and find your own experience personally rewarding.
