Newton at Home, a volunteer-powered nonprofit, empowers older adults in Newton to live independently, safely, and with peace of mind in the homes they love. As a member-based village, we connect neighbors to neighbors - offering practical support, meaningful social engagement, and a strong sense of community.
Why Choose Newton at Home
With over 14 years of experience, Newton at Home has fulfilled over 38,000 service requests, provided 11,000+ rides, and built a caring network of dedicated volunteers and engaged members.
We’re part of the nationwide Village Movement, modeled on peer‑to‑peer empowerment and neighbor‑helping‑neighbor values. That means members stay in charge of their lives, supported by a flexible, responsive community.
What We Offer
Personalized Volunteer Services - From rides to medical appointments and errands, to light household repairs, gardening help, tech support, and friendly check‑in calls—our vetted volunteers are ready to assist.
Social & Enrichment Programs - Join lectures, group outings, hobby groups, hikes, dining clubs, and cultural events. Whether in person or online, these gatherings foster friendships, curiosity, and joy.
Health, Learning & Wellness - Attend seminars on estate planning, fall prevention, memory health, navigating home modifications, and more. We also offer peer walks, wellness check‑ins, and post‑hospital support.
Interest Groups & Community Building - Share a passion—whether books, technology, walking, or games—by joining or creating a small affinity group. It's an easy way to connect with neighbors who share your interests.
Our rich and wide-ranging programming offers our members and volunteers a chance to meet share experiences. Meet and develop friendships, foster a deep sense of belonging to the community.
