Friendly Companion (phone/in-person)
Friendly Companion (phone/in-person)

Make a new friend! Our Friendly Phone Call and Friendly Visitor programs are on a mission to connect neighbors and build new friendships. 


Get to know one of your Indianhead/Lehigh neighbors better. Talk about what’s on your mind. 


An elder and a volunteer talk on the phone weekly or less often, or arrange for in-person visits, if preferred. It is a great way to reduce the isolation and loneliness while providing the flexibility to maintain social distancing if desired

Celebratory Serenades
Celebratory Serenades

One Friday in April 2020, a few neighbors surprised a resident on her 74th birthday with an outdoor Happy Birthday serenade that included appropriate social distancing. One of the serenaders even put on a dress for the occasion. The flamingos stayed after the singers left as a lasting, tasteful birthday gift. We can sing for you too. If there is a birthday or anniversary to be noticed, let us know. WARNING: One of the serenaders cannot sing on tune. However, no one noticed. Musicians and all others are welcome to join the fun.

Yard Work
Yard Work

While Indianhead/Lehigh yards have some of the most beautiful trees in Tallahassee, sometimes they can become a challenge to maintain. Mowing grass, raking leaves, and trimming plants are just a few ways our volunteers can lighten the load of elders in the neighborhood.

 

Volunteers bring their own equipment and coordinate with you on yard work projects.

 

If you prefer, N3 can also provide referrals to yard maintenance professionals and nurseries that can deliver plants to you.
