Member Duties : Catholic Charities of Buffalo is a Catholic sponsored human service agency serving anyone in need in the eight counties of Western New York. Catholic Charities of Buffalo works to empower individuals, children, and families to achieve and maintain meaningful and healthy lives within their communities. Directly impacting poverty, Catholic Charities is an advocate for those in need by assessing and meeting specific needs of our community members. The VISTA Volunteer Specialist will promote community involvement in the Foster Grandparent Program through outreaching, speaking, and recruitment engagements, with the goal of enrolling new clients or volunteers. The VISTA member will also facilitate new volunteer orientation, create flyers for upcoming events and conduct site visits to follow up on volunteer’s progress. The VISTA member will eventually enroll 35 new Foster Grandparent Volunteers by the end of their service year.
