Get Some Exercise While Volunteering

ORGANIZATION: Cultivate

SnowBuster!
Getting some Bustin' Done!

Did you know an older adult in Boulder County can face up to a $100 dollar fine for not having their sidewalk cleared of snow? So many of these adults have neither the physical means nor financial means to keep their sidewalks clear after a snowfall. CAN YOU HELP?

Cultivate will match you up with an older adult IN YOUR NEIGHBORHOOD who needs a bit of assistance with their sidewalk. As a volunteer, you shovel the walk within 24 hours after the snow stops - so when it fits your schedule- maybe before work or on your way home. This is also a great opportunity for families to volunteer together!

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.
