Many of our wonderful volunteers spend time away during the summer months. If you have a little extra time on your hands in June, July and/or August, consider joining our Summer Squad! A couple of hours weekly, bi-weekly or even monthly will help your senior and younger disabled neighbors get to doctor's appointments and grocery stores! These are essential "errands" that help home bound people remain living independently with safety and dignity.
Doctor appointments happen during regular work hours, while grocery shopping trips can happen during regular work hours, evenings and weekends. Children are welcome to participate in this volunteer activity with their parents!
A little help from a lot of neighbors helps our community remain healthy and safe! Email Rhonda Davis, rdavis@eldernetonline.org or call 610-525-4647.

Description
ElderNet provides volunteer-based services such as door to door escort driving to medical appointments, grocery stores, banks, pharmacies and other essential errands. We also provide friendly visits or calls, odd jobs, small home repairs, and help with managing checkbooks and bills. These volunteer services are free and available to older and younger disabled adults living in Lower Merion Township or Narberth Borough in Montgomery County, PA. Income guidelines also apply for volunteer-based services. ElderNet also operates a food pantry and provides emergency financial assistance to qualifying Lower Merion Township residents (income and residency restrictions apply). Our information and referral services are open to anyone. We also have new and evolving services that further contribute to helping older and disabled younger adults remain living in their own homes. We collaborate with other agencies and have a very active advocacy committee.
