A 60-year-old man with ALS and his husband would like a volunteer to assist them around the house with cleaning, chores, and/or pet care (they have an older dog). Tuesdays, Wednesdays, or Thursdays work best with their schedule in the morning or afternoon. They would ideally like a volunteer who is available to visit weekly for approximately 2 hours.
If you have an extra hour or two in your week to help some neighbors in need, we'd love to hear from you! This opportunity is part of the ALS Association's Family Assistance Program:
