ORGANIZATION: Volunteer Services

Volunteer and Client

An African American Elder in the Central district is struggling to keep her home neat and clean. Her basement needs to be sorted withher helping at 30 min to 1 hour at a time. She needs to go through it slowly and at her pace. Get to know a lovely elder while going through her memories!

Volunteer Services, a program of Catholic Community Services, assists low-income older adults and adults living with disabilities. Volunteers can provide assistance with light housecleaning, transportation, grocery shopping, home repair, and yard care. With a little help from volunteers, clients can continue to live independently in their homes.

Due to the vulnerable population we serve, volunteers must complete an application form, pass a Washington State Patrol check and attend an orientation.
