ORGANIZATION: Cultivate

Now, more than ever, women need to come together to support each other. Being a woman in this country has never been easy, and some could argue, it is getting tougher: lowering wages, skyrocketing college costs with degree inflation in most typically women-held jobs, increased child costs, are just to name a few.

Many women have fallen on hard times with little job prospects, absent dads and a vast increase in street drugs. Can you help these women a few hours a week? Women volunteers are needed on Mondays in downtown Boulder from 9-2 at a day shelter.

Really, sometimes all it takes is just being present. No fancy talk, no promises, just a friendly ear, letting someone know they are important. Can that person be you?

About Cultivate

Location:

6325 Gunpark Drive, Suite F, Boulder, CO 80301, US

Mission Statement

Cultivate helps seniors flourish through active engagement with their community.

Description

For 50 years, Cultivate has dedicated itself to helping seniors flourish through active engagement with their communities. Volunteers can work directly with seniors or in other program support positions. Some people volunteer for one day; others sign on for years. Volunteers are always welcome! Our volunteers support our senior neighbors through the following programs:

Carry-Out Caravan - Grocery order-taking, shopping and delivery
Fix-It - Minor home repair including grab bar installation
VetsGo - Transportation for senior veterans and their senior family members to their medical appointments
SnowBusters - Snow shoveling in winter to help prevent falls and municipal citations
YardBusters - Yard cleanup to help prevent falls and municipal citations.

By providing services at no cost, Cultivate helps seniors remain independent, yet connected, within their communities. Beyond the medical rides, groceries or other services, Cultivate volunteers provide something even more transformational - reprieve from isolation. Both clients and volunteers benefit from the socialization with one another, and family members enjoy peace of mind, knowing that their loved ones are receiving much needed services from caring members of the community.
