For you, it’s fun, easy and can take as little as 30 minutes! You’ll be a hero to those you help! Help low-income older adults in your area with minor home repairs such as fixing a leaky faucet, changing out a toilet seat, or repairing a small hole in a wall. Keeping up on these repair is a tremendous challenge for the older adults we serve. You can volunteer when it fits your schedule and near your home or work.
Volunteer Services, a program of Catholic Community Services, assists low-income elders and persons living with disabilities. Volunteers can provide assistance with light housecleaning, transportation, grocery shopping, home repair and yard care. With a little help from volunteers, clients can continue to live independently in their homes.
Due to the vulnerable population we serve, volunteers must complete an application form, pass a background check and attend an orientation.
