A 64-year-old man with ALS would love a volunteer to help him with a variety of outdoor tasks this spring/summer: these include trimming his peony bushes, picking up leaves, and mowing the lawn. Scheduling can be flexible!
If you'd like to combine getting outside and soaking up some sun with helping a neighbor in need, we'd love to hear from you! This opportunity is part of the ALS Association's Family Assistance Program:
