Bridge Buddy Callers

Bridge Buddies is a program designed to conduct safety checks and combat loneliness in older adults in Madison and Monona through the use of regular phone calls.

As a Bridge Buddy volunteer caller, you have two options. You can choose to participate in reassurance calls, social calls or both! Social calls will consist of weekly friendly chats that we suggest are between 15-60 minutes, while reassurance calls are a few minutes and occur weekdays. In both program options you will be assigned an older adult match that you will be responsible for calling.
