Volunteers are needed to clear driveways and sidewalks for elderly neighbors. 

Family Service Rochester’s Neighbors Helping Neighbors is looking to match volunteers with seniors in local neighborhoods. Once the match is made, the volunteer will be assigned to clear the sidewalks and paths surrounding the same home after each storm this winter.

Don't have the capacity to commit to helping after every snowfall? We're also looking for snow subs to help when available!

If interested, please respond to this request or reach out to our Volunteer Engagement Team at volunteers@familyservicerochester.org or 507-287-2010

Through Neighbors Helping Neighbors, we conduct Home Safety Visits, helping to identify potential safety and fall hazards in the home of seniors in our community.

Volunteers are needed to administer the program, as well as to conduct the Home Safety Visits.  Below is a job description of the role.  Additional education will be provided.

Please Respond if interested in learning more, or contact Jackie Glynn as listed below.

Home Safety Corps

Today, Americans are living longer while staying active and healthy. However, as people age they become more prone to falls leading to injury, loss of independence, and fear of falling again. The good news is that falls are preventable, and aging itself does not cause falls.

Because most falls occur at home, a home safety corps volunteer can help an older adult improve their safety at home by identifying risk factors and making safety recommendations. A corps of trained Home Safety Corps Volunteers deliver this service across Olmsted County. Must be 18+ years of age.

Responsibilities

Skills required

Volunteers are needed to mow lawns for seniors and those with disabilities this summer.  Mowing begins as soon as the yard is ready for mowing and ends in November based on need and weather.  The volunteer should be available to mow every 5-7 days early in the season, every 7-10 days later in the season, or as needed and agreed upon with homeowner.  Homeowners may or may not have a lawn mower.  If you are able to transport your mower to a location, please include that in your response. 

Please respond if interested and you will be contacted when you are matched to a request for assistance.
