Danell LaPread Retiring

After more than 20 years with Auburn University, OLLI's registrar and office manager, Danell LaPread, has decided to retire. She will be missed!

We will have a celebration for Danell on Wednesday, May 31 from 2pm - 4pm at Sunny Slope. Please join us as we show our appreciation of her and wish her well.

Village Friends Volunteer Training

Become a volunteer and help seniors in Auburn/Opelika maintain an independent lifestyle. Please consider volunteering!

We provide transportation to medical appointments, grocery shopping, and other needs. We offer help with minor home repairs, learning to use technology, yard work, and provide friendly calls and visits. We also set up monthly lunch buddies and dinner events to help combat isolation. Volunteers select times that are convenient for them.
