A 38 year old gentleman living with ALS and his wife are looking for someone to clear snow from their 30 foot driveway and short sidewalk. The husband is physically unable to clear the snow and his wife does not have the time; she is the primary caregiver for him and their two children, ages five and two. They have a shovel a volunteer could use and would be fine if someone brought their own snow blower or used a plow.
If you want to volunteer or if you know a snow removal company that would like to donate their services, we want to hear from you! Find out why the family assistance program rocks and how you can be a part of it by visiting our website [tinyurl.com/ALS-FAP].
