Give a little sunshine! The Council on Aging （COA） runs a telephone friendship project called the Sunshine Call Program，matching over-60s with a friendly volunteer for a daily chat over the phone.The aim is simple --to help ease the loneliness and repair social networks.

Sheila，77，a retired teacher，lived alone.She has been receiving calls from Rianne，a volunteer，for over two months.    "Talking to Rianne is something I really look forward to--a breath of fresh air.We talk about everything--theatre，her work，books we've read...Listening to someone else's life enriches you and gives you something positive to focus on."    "At the beginning，I had no expectation of how the phone calls would go，but it's wonderful that it's led to a genuine friendship.Rianne helps me a lot..."

Are you ready to add a little sunshine to a senior's life？
   The Sunshine Call Program initially links a volunteer with an isolated（獨(dú)居的）senior for a daily call.When comfortable，the volunteer introduces a second senior to the call.Then another，until there are four seniors to one volunteer on what is essentially a conference call.Without having to leave the house，you will help the seniors meet and make new friends.They will then exchange phone numbers to chat on their own and reduce their isolation.
   What are the volunteer qualifications？
   Volunteers must have access to the Internet and be willing to be trained on the use of a chat app.COA will provide all supplies required to make the calls.Besides，volunteers must agree to participate in monthly meetings with other volunteers and guest speakers.All volunteers must be willing to provide a recent Criminal Record Check，the cost of which will be borne by COA.And the most important volunteer qualification is a sense of caring and a desire to help seniors in the community!
