Kent: Thank a Veteran

ORGANIZATION: Volunteer Services

Cleaning Supplies

Give your time and talents to a Navy veteran on the East Hill! This lovely man is a new widower and needs a little help with housework: vacuuming and maintaining a small kitchen floor. The windows and curtains in the small living room need a one-time washing to bring a new, clean, energetic life into his home. Be a friend and help him adjust to his new independent life. It would mean so much to him!

Volunteer Services, a program of Catholic Community Services, assists low-income older adults and adults living with disabilities. Volunteers can provide assistance with light housecleaning, transportation, grocery shopping, home repair, and yard care. With a little help from volunteers, clients can continue to live independently in their homes.

Due to the vulnerable population we serve, volunteers must complete an application form, pass a Washington State Patrol check and attend an orientation.
