Senior Buddy Program
The Senior Buddy Program provides support and assistance to our most experienced friends and colleagues in the entertainment industry who may need phone buddies, home visit buddies, grocery shopping buddies, computer tutors, home repair assistance and more. A key goal is to identify seniors in our SAG-AFTRA membership who might benefit from these services, as well as volunteers to fill the need.
There is also a Cabaret Program to provide entertainment for our senior colleagues.
MOVE is pleased to partner with the Motion Picture and Television Fund (MPTF) volunteer program and Elder Connection, a community volunteer program, to provide a broader outreach within the SAG-AFTRA community.
