    Description

    Love to organize, clean, do laundry? Help an elderly or disabled person keep their home tidy.

    For years our elderly and disabled clients have taken pride in maintaining their homes. Now, due to physical limitations, visual impairments, and/or medical conditions, they can't keep up with all the chores related to maintaining their homes. Volunteers are matched with a client to help with cleaning tasks such as vacuuming, dusting, laundry, de-cluttering and/or organizing. Many matches combine visiting with the client while doing their tasks. This type of assistance, a couple of hours per week or every other week, allows our elderly or disabled clients to maintain their independence in their home. Our clients live in the following 7 towns: Derry, Londonderry, Windham, Hampstead, Danville, Sandown, and Chester, NH.
