Sign up early! We always try to pair volunteers with a senior (or seniors) in their own community.

You must be: At least 16 years old Physically able to do the work (lift 20+ pounds, bend, stretch, etc.) Able to provide and transport your own equipment (lawnmower and weed trimmer) We serve multiple cities in Hennepin, Wright, and Sherburne Counties.
