Be a Buddy

The Focus of Our Efforts

Our Impact

Our Be a Buddy project is one of our highly demanded and personalized programs in which volunteers from MSA, who are based from across the world, connect with patients via virtual video calls. The volunteers conduct a wide variety of individualized activities that cater to the interests and likes of the patients to bring joy to their day. 

​

Reading books, singing songs, playing an instrument, and showing the various sights across the globe are a few activities to name. Through weekly meetings, the patients form a special bond with their respective buddies and have a friend by their side to support and be there for them.

Hear From Our Volunteers

"Every time that I’ve been a buddy, I have truly enjoyed it! Although all of the people I was paired up with weren’t able to verbally communicate their needs to me, I began to recognize the impact I was making through their subtle smiles. Something I’ve learned and enjoyed is ways to get out of my comfort zone to help others. As someone that aspires to be a healthcare provider, I feel like I’ve expanded my ability to support others.
