We are seeking at least 40 volunteers and 10 cars. St. Louis NORC supports adults aged 60+ to remain independent in their homes/apartments for as long as they wish with some of the tasks they are no longer able to do on their own. Raking, cleaning out flower beds, moving patio furniture, etc. are some of the outside work we look to our students to provide. We know it’s a rewarding experience for all involved.
Individuals self-group, 4 per home, and visit two homes in a four hour period. At least 1 car is needed for each group. Our residents provide the equipment, sometimes treats, and lots of appreciation for your help.
