Some seniors in our community struggle to remain in their own homes because they need a little essential help with light housekeeping, grocery shopping, or other simple tasks.

But together we can change that. Tap into your care and concern for others and join the WayForward Resources community as a Senior Program - Home Chores volunteer! You can be matched with a local senior and give them a little more peace and stability in their golden years.

To get started, simply enter your info into our interest form found at https://www.wayforwardresources.org/volunteer/help-a-senior-with-light-chores. Within 48 hours, we’ll be in touch with more information including volunteer onboarding steps and access to our easy online volunteer application. Once accepted, we’ll work together to set up your regular volunteer schedule. All needed training and support will be provided.
