Just one ... YOU!
Imagine if you were sitting in a wheel chair and your overhead kitchen light went out. Who are you going to call?
Volunteer Services receives frequent requests for help from low-income seniors and people with disabilities. Some requests are as simple as changing a light bulb. We also install grab bars and build wheel chair ramps.
Help make a difference in someone's life...it only takes a few hours a month!
We are in need of your skills!
