- A group opportunity. Invite your friends.
A Little Help is looking for volunteers to help our older adult neighbors in the Roaring Fork Valley with outdoor yard work and chores for our A Little Kindness Days. We welcome groups of 6 or less from families, companies, churches, school or just neighbors to take part in our Kindness Days at the end of October and beginning of November. We love to see all ages participate.
There are four Little Kindness Days to choose from: October 23, October 24, November 6, November 7
We will ask you to complete your sign up with us at www.alittlehelp.org/servicesaturdays - pick the location/city you would like to provide the help and then sign up your Pod of 6 or less.
As the date you signed up for nears, we will send you the location of the home or homes you will be helping so you can go directly there that morning. We will ask that you bring as many of your own tools as possible, as well as wear a mask, just to help stop the spread of the virus.
Help combat some of the isolation effects of COVID-19: We also hope you will take some time to get to know the neighbor you are helping and provide what may be some much needed social interaction - at a safe distance.

Mission Statement
A Little Help is a nonprofit organization that connects neighbors of all ages to help older adults thrive in their homes and in their communities.
Description
A Little Help connects volunteers with older adults to help them with tasks like yardwork, transportation, and errand running to help them age well in their homes. We serve older adults in Metro Denver/Jefferson County, Fort Collins and Berthoud/Loveland, and in the Western Slope.
A Little Help is based on the Village Model in which local resources and people of all ages are brought together to benefit both older adult members and the greater community. Sharing talents, resources and building intergenerational relationships allow older adults to age safely and thrive in their homes. Studies have shown that those who live longer, healthier lives have close relationships with their neighbors and continually find new purpose as they age.
