Request a Volunteer

We create in-person, telephone, and virtual opportunities for social connection. Register with our program to learn more about how you, or your family member, can be connected to our trained neighborhood volunteers.

Due to limited volunteer availability, Blue Neighbors is not able to offer transportation to doctor visits. Visit highmark.findhelp.com, or call the number on the back of your member ID card to learn about your transportation benefit options.
