ORGANIZATION: I Want To Mow Your Lawn ®

image_20250405014810

I Want To Mow Your Lawn Inc. is a grassroots nonprofit making a big difference through free landscaping and yard work. We help veterans, seniors, and struggling families maintain their lawns when they no longer can. Volunteers like you make this mission possible.
If you enjoy fresh air and light landscaping, we'd love your help-even just once. No commitment, no stress. You'll get matched with verified homeowner leads in your area, and you're always protected with volunteer accident insurance while helping out.
Got a mower or trimmer? Awesome. Don't? That's okay too-some homeowners have theirs. Whether you assist one time or become a regular, we see and appreciate your efforts.
We provide an optional volunteer dashboard where you can log your hours and track your landscaping impact. Those who do can qualify for exclusive perks like branded gear, lawn signs, upgraded equipment, business cards, and even personal email and phone line extensions.
Every donation we receive is reinvested directly into helping volunteers and growing our reach. Join us in spreading kindness where it's needed most, one lawn at a time.

Mission Statement

To preserve dignity, enable independence and build community by providing eco-friendly essential lawn service for the elderly, veterans and others in need.

Description

I Want To Mow Your Lawn(r) is a registered 501(c)(3) non-profit organization (Tax ID: 85-3447661) that connects homeowners in need with a nationwide network of passionate landscaping volunteers. Launched in 2020 amidst the COVID-19 pandemic, we provide completely free lawn care services to seniors over 65, military veterans, individuals with disabilities, and those facing financial challenges, while prioritizing eco-friendly practices and fostering community connection.

Founded by Brian Schwartz after being laid off from his digital advertising job, the initiative began as a way to stay engaged during a difficult time. It has since grown into a thriving platform with over 1,300 volunteers across the USA and even some enlisted in other countries. With their help, we've revitalized countless yards, spreading kindness one lawn at a time.

Thanks to support from leading battery-powered equipment manufacturers and recognition in major media outlets, I Want To Mow Your Lawn(r) has become a growing, trademarked brand. Our mission connects the dots between homeowners and volunteers, offering relief while encouraging neighbors to lend a hand and make a difference. Whether it's trimming, edging, or just showing up to say hello, our volunteers help transform neighborhoods into stronger, greener communities.

Join us in this growing movement. Whether as a volunteer or supporter, your involvement helps us expand our reach and bring smiles to even more homes.
