ORGANIZATION: Extreme Community Makeover

image_20250402180251

The Good Neighbors program offers one-on-one support for residents. Volunteers are paired with a resident to assist with tasks like organizing, completing forms or paperwork, handling small household chores, or simply visiting and providing companionship.

Volunteers will need to complete and pass a background check. Once that step is complete, matches will be made based on available skills of volunteers and needs of residents aligning, along with taking the geographic location of both individuals into consideration.

From there, a "meet and greet" will be scheduled to ensure both individuals have a chance to meet and ask questions of one another to determine if it will be a good fit. When both individuals agree to moving forward, that's when a match is made.

To get started, click "Sign Up" in VolunteerHub, and you will receive instructions on how to proceed with the background check process.

About Extreme Community Makeover

Location:

4200 Morrison Road, Unit 3, Denver, CO 80219, US

Mission Statement

Extreme Community Makeover coordinates volunteer teams to partner with Denver residents to improve their own homes and neighborhoods. These projects build safer environments; cultivate community among residents, neighborhoods, and networks of local resource providers; and connect residents to a permanent path towards healthy, hopeful, and stable lives.

Description

Extreme Community Makeover (ECM) is designed to invite volunteers into a partnership with residents of Denver neighborhoods to complete home and neighborhood improvement projects. These projects include graffiti removal, landscaping, painting, yard work, or other projects identified by the residents. Groups such as churches, companies, families, and schools may participate, or individuals can take part. Equally important as fences that are built are the relationships being built-between the volunteers and the community members, among the neighbors on a block, and between the community and resources in their neighborhood.
