Join the Springwell volunteer team and make a difference in just a few hours per month.

Taking care of monthly bill paying and maintaining a budget can be overwhelming for some people due to aging or physical limitations. A little support with managing finances is often one of the services individuals need in order to maintain their independence. Money Management Program volunteers assist low-income seniors and adults with disabilities who are still able to make responsible decisions about their financial affairs but may need some functional assistance with the bill-paying process, to achieve economic security and maintain peace of mind. Volunteers assist consumers with monthly bill paying, paperwork organization, establishing a budget, keeping track of bank records, monitoring income and handling other issues associated with personal finance.
