ORGANIZATION: Volunteer Services

Bring conversation and your housework skills to an isolated senior in your neighborhood!

Volunteer Services connects a volunteer 1:1 with a senior or adult with disabilities on a fixed income to work in their home doing light housework while chatting and visiting. Your listening can be just as beneficial as the cleaning. We have many seniors in need and can match you literally minutes from your home. Your help taking out the trash, sweeping the floors, and reaching things she cannot grab can keep her living independently!

VS is a program of Catholic Community Services. Reigstration packet, including background check is required. The senior is flexible - You volunteer on the days and times that work for you.
