Volunteer connection
If you can help someone an hour or two a week, or a month, your time can make an impact. Faith in Action, one of TRPIL’s services, needs caring volunteers to assist senior citizens or individuals with disabilities to remain independent.
Some needs are:
- Escorts and drivers are needed for seniors throughout the county on an on-call basis to go to church, appointments and shopping. If you have a flexible schedule, you could help.
- A Cherry Valley/Burgettstown-area visually impaired, senior woman needs someone to visit weekly and read the Bible and/or go shopping with her.
- An Avella woman needs assistance with rides to Washington for dialysis and/or rides home several times per week.
- A Charleroi senior woman needs someone to visit weekly and possibly shop for her once in a while.
- Do you like cutting grass, mulching and other outside work in spring and summer? Would you be willing to donate some time to help a senior or an individual with a disability with lawn care? Call to find out how you can help.
Contact Faith in Action by calling 724-223-5115 ext. 1203 for more details. The office is staffed part-time. Someone will call you back. All volunteers are trained and screened.
