Are you handy to have around?! Then this Marysville senior woman could use a hand!
She is in desperate need of several small repairs including her wheelchair, her bed and some electronics. Completion of any of the repairs would be wonderful. This is a one-time commitment. Many thanks!
Having help with little tasks like these is what makes it possible for the elderly to stay in their homes. They appreciate you!

Mission Statement
Join us today! Interact and engage with isolated individuals by assisting with household tasks or by providing transportation for those who are unable to drive themselves to medical appointments or errands. Work individually or with others to assist someone in need with larger, one-day projects. Volunteer Services of Snohomish County assisted over 350 individuals in 2014 by providing over 18,000 hours in volunteer work. "You are helping me to be independent and to be able to stay in my home - what a blessing that is." -- Mary, current client
Description
Volunteer Chore Services (VCS) began in 1981 as a grassroots response to State-wide budget cuts that left 4,000 elders without chore services. Over the years VCS has proven itself to be a cost-effective safety net for those who do not qualify for the State's assistance and cannot afford to purchase services.
Volunteers opportunities such as housework, laundry, transportation, shopping and similar independent living requests enable clients to remain in their homes with dignity and a sense of belonging to their community.
