Alliances
South Coastal Village Volunteers is just one of many organizations serving older adults in our area. We collaborate and
continue to build relationships with other non-profits, associations and local businesses to serve the needs of our
seniors.
Village Volunteers
South Coastal Village Volunteers is grateful for the support, guidance and
mentoring of Village Volunteers that serves Lewes, Milton and Rehoboth Beach. Becoming a branch of Village Volunteers
allowed SCVV to become operational more quickly, bringing much-needed services to the community because we were able to
share VV’s IRS approved 501(c)(3) non-profit status and Tax ID Number (EIN).
Beebe Health Care
Beebe's
Home Care Services and Population Health Services refers patients to SCVV for support following discharge from the
hospital. Beebe shares our information with patients and their families. We follow up to offer volunteer services.
