    Description

    Be there for seniors in Somerville or Cambridge who need an occasional helping hand.Whether it’s a quick errand, lifting something heavy, or delivering pet food, the opportunities vary. This program is perfect for your busy schedule; you need only respond when you have time to help. Having a personal vehicle can be useful, but is not required.
