Remote Care for Parents in Palo Alto
You're in one city. Your parent is in Palo Alto. VoGro connects them with a local volunteer who helps with groceries, prescriptions, errands, and company.
The phone calls only do so much
You call every day, but you can't tell if they're eating well or taking their meds on time. The agencies you find online cost hundreds a week for someone your parent doesn't want in the house.
VoGro matches your parent with a volunteer from their own neighborhood. Someone who actually wants to help. It feels more like a neighbor dropping by than a service. And it's free.

How this is different from an agency
“Setting up help for Dad took ten minutes. The volunteer called him before arriving, was patient and kind. Dad actually asked when she could come back.”

Daughter of senior in College Terrace
