MINNESOTA MINNEAPOLIS TWIN CITIES
Snow Angels Unite!
As recently seen on ABC TV in Minnesota, one of our volunteers Brian went around all day with his snow blower and helped around a dozen elderly, veteran and disabled clients in need with snow removal from their property. Come join our movement!
Would you like to be of service to those in need? Particularly ones that truly cant afford the paid service and not able to do it physically. Great outdoor networking event. We have Senior Citizens, Disabled and Military Veterans looking for help. We can match you up with one or however many you can handle after snowfall in the area.
Whether you own a shovel or even a snow blower, and with a means to transport it around within a 5-10-15 mile radius. Or if just around the corner. That's OK too! Whatever you can do any day or night of the week or weekend, one time or repeat -- truly appreciated, please contact with anything you can afford to do, Thanks for helping your friendly neighbors that need to be kept safe during winter and let them know we are there to help.
We have requests from the following locations:
Stay safe this winter! and Thank You!

Mission Statement
To preserve dignity, enable independence and build community by providing eco-friendly essential lawn service for the elderly, veterans and others in need.
Description
Launched in 2020 amidst the COVID-19 pandemic, I Want To Mow Your Lawn (r) , a registered 501(c)(3) non-profit organization (Tax ID: 853447661), offers completely free lawn care to seniors over 65, military veterans, the disabled, and those facing financial challenges - all while prioritizing eco-friendly practices. Founder Brian Schwartz, who was laid off from his digital advertising job, saw it as a chance to make a difference when the world felt chaotic.
As time progressed, the demand surged, and a growing number of volunteers joined Brian's mission. Currently, over 340 volunteers across 40 states have revitalized more than 500 yards. For those receiving assistance from I Want To Mow Your Lawn(tm), the grass might not always be greener, but it's neatly trimmed, edged, and raked.
Global media coverage has led to an impressive six-fold increase in volunteer sign-ups for the upcoming 2023 spring-summer season.
