Save to Favorites

ORGANIZATION: Cultivate

Get your exercise in while helping a senior get their much-needed groceries! Kill two birds with one stone by shopping at the South Boulder King Soopers on Thursday mornings and getting those steps in while picking out store items for clients. I guarantee you will walk a mile in the store -- no having to not exercise if it's rainy or snowy!- walk the grocery store while shopping for seniors who have mobility problems or don't drive.
It's fun, you'll meet new friends, an know that you are helping a senior of Boulder County get their weekly groceries.

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.
