Become a
New Neighbor Volunteer
with Heartfelt Tidbits. The mission of Heartfelt Tidbits Inc. is providing support to refugees and recent immigrants living in Southwestern Ohio by facilitating
integration
and
self-sufficiency
through innovative education, cultural and employment-enhancing programming. As a
New Neighbor Volunteer
you will support a newly arrived family with various needs that come with living in a new environment and being an immigrant or refugee in the U.S. Responsibilities will be agreed upon after connecting a volunteer with a family. Responsibilities could be as listed below. Case Management Volunteers follow refugees closely in their transition to life in Cincinnati. This may include driving clients to appointments, to the grocery store, or to other errands. Furthermore, volunteers guide families to self sufficiency, as they teach them how to navigate the bus system and other nuances that come with living in a new environment. Financial Empowerment Volunteers aid refugees and immigrants in money management to ensure financial security for refugee families. Referrals Volunteers connect their new neighbors to resources within their community, if the need arises. This can take the form of legal, education, housing and employment referrals, financial resources, and agencies providing familial aid. Healthcare Volunteers engage with clients directly by visiting them in their home and helping them navigate their community and their new life. Volunteers aid refugees and immigrants with navigating the healthcare system. They can also act as advocates for refugees who are hospitalized but don’t possess the requisite language skills to advocate for themselves. Whatever your passion and purpose is, we are here to connect you to local nonprofits. RSVP is exclusive to those 55 years+ and residents of Greater Cincinnati.
