There are many seniors in Skyway, Kent, Auburn and Renton needing some assistance with easy minor home repairs! These are simple repairs such as fixing a hinge, re-hanging a door, helping adjust a bedframe. The goal of the Volunteer Services program is to help older adults and adults with disabilities stay independent in their homes for as long as possible. Helping out with simple home repairs would be a huge help for this goal and these folks would really appreciate it!

Background on Volunteer Services:

Volunteer Services, a program of Catholic Community Services, assists low-income elders and persons 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.
