Use Your Practical Skills to Help
Neighbors In Need
Volunteers are greatly needed to help frail, older and disabled adults in our community with the following:
- Minor home repairs
- Indoor/outdoor chores & basic housekeeping
For a frail older adult or a person with disabilities,
simple tasks like dusting & vacuuming, changing light bulbs or raking leaves can be impossible. Many minor home repairs are often beyond their abilities and far too expensive for them to purchase professionally. The Interfaith Volunteer Caregivers program helps our older and disabled neighbors with such tasks so they can remain safe and
independent in their own homes.
If you can help weekly, monthly or even just a couple times a year, please call us today. The time you give will make a real difference in someone’s life.
For more information call the Interfaith Volunteer Caregivers at (586) 757-5551 or visit www.ivcinfo.org to learn more.
