Volunteering in Groups
Each October ADRC teams up with the Volunteer Center for Make a Difference Day. Your group can help seniors and adults with disabilities maintain their homes by getting the outside of their homes ready for winter.
Maintaining a home is very expensive and labor intensive. Living on a fixed income can make this impossible. You’ll be helping them continue to live in the homes they love.
The Volunteer Center recruits and coordinates volunteer groups and ADRC gathers the wishes.
