Rake it all In: Help an Older Adult Rake their Yard
ORGANIZATION: Idealist.org
Please visit the new page to apply.
Recruiting Organization: Village in the Ville
Volunteer with Village in the Ville to help older adults in the Clintonville, Beechwold, and University Districts with their leaf raking and yard clean up.
Village in the Ville offers yard and lawn care services to older adults in our community so that they can continue to age-in-place - that is, in their home and our community - for as long as possible. We do this by connecting older adults in need of yard help to in-the-know volunteers, like you. Folks willing and able to help them keep their yards free of leaves and debris. So, if you're someone who enjoys the crisp fall air and spending time outdoors, all while helping to make a difference in your community, then this volunteer opportunity is for you!
By sharing your energy and leaf raking skills, you're helping to ensure that our aging neighbors can continue to age in their homes and our community for as long as possible. Not only will you get the satisfaction of knowing you made this difference, you'll also get the satisfaction of friendship, as you'll have the opportunity to get to know those who you're helping!
Volunteers may sign up individually or as a small group. Once volunteers sign up, an email with the address of an older adult that needs help raking their leaves and an outline of tasks will be sent. Timing is flexible, but volunteers should plan to set aside 2-3 hours for volunteering. Prior to the volunteer date, Village staff will make sure all tools and necessary yard waste bags are at the older adult's home.
If you have any questions, please contact Timna Haines at timna.haines@clintonvillecrc.org or (614) 404-1521. You can also visit our website at www.villageintheville.org to learn more about our Village!
