How Can The Home Chore Program Help Me?

  • Our volunteers will cover a range of light housekeeping duties and help sort through clutter to keep the home neat and organized. We are committed to help our clients maintain a safe and clean home.

  • From raking leaves to mowing lawns, we understand there are all sorts of seasonal yard tasks that older adults often struggle with. Our volunteers can help you on a regular basis or with one time special projects.

  • Many people, especially older adults, can underestimate the time, strength and stamina it takes to shovel snow. Our Snow Angel volunteers help with snow removal in the winter. They keep your driveways, walkways, and sidewalks free of ice and snow to help keep you safe.

  • A prevailing sense of loneliness is among the most common issues faced by older adults today. With 42.6 million older adults reporting a feeling of social disconnect. Having a volunteer visit monthly can help alleviate some of that loneliness.
