Enriching Lives through Volunteering

Volunteers are at the heart of community life. Their time, energy and compassion touch every corner of our campus, bringing joy to residents and strengthening the spirit of connection that helps define who we are. With more than 300 active volunteers contributing tens of thousands of hours each year, their impact is both wide-reaching and deeply personal.

How Volunteers Serve

Hilltop Reflections is not only a place to enjoy nature. It is also a gathering space for worship and fellowship. Residents come together for Bible studies, hymn sings and Sunday services.

Every volunteer role is an opportunity to make a meaningful difference. Some provide transportation, ensuring residents can get to medical appointments or social activities. Others help with events, assist in wellness programs or support life enrichment activities. Many volunteers simply spend time with residents, offering conversation, companionship and the kind of connection that brightens a day.

Corporate groups, local schools and families also join in, giving their time to serve together. These partnerships create experiences that will last for generations and build stronger ties across the community.

Making an Impact

Volunteers often walk away with a deep sense of gratitude, finding that they’ve gained as much as they’ve given. The connections formed go beyond a single visit, creating lasting memories and strengthening the bonds of community. The true impact of volunteering shines through in moments of resident joy, meaningful friendships, and lives touched for the better.
