RJ is a very kind man who has diabetes and uses a wheelchair. He lives near Trader Joe’s in Central District. He is hoping someone could come in to help him get caught up with housework, because he hasn’t had any help in quite some time, and needs help getting caught up with laundry and cleaning the floors. He also would love it if someone could go with him to Trader Joe's just across the street and help him carry groceries back. He likes his apartment to be very picked up and organized but has been unable to keep up due to his health. Despite his rapidly declining health he is a positive, upbeat and optimistic person who will always greet you with a smile. Just a couple of visits from you per month would just mean the world to him.

Volunteer Chore Service, a program of Catholic Community Services, assists low-income elders and persons living with disabilities. Volunteers can provide assistance with light housecleaning, transportation, grocery shopping, home repair and yard care. With a little help from volunteers, clients can continue to live independently in their homes.
Due to the vulnerable population we serve, volunteers must complete an application form, pass a Washington State Patrol check and attend an orientation.
