Several partner agencies of United Way’s Open Your Heart to a Senior initiative need volunteers for various programs:
In Service of Seniors is calling all angels – snow angels, that is! Snow Angels matches neighbors with neighbors to shovel the walks of those who are unable to do this on their own. Volunteers impact lives in our community by ensuring our more vulnerable neighbors continue to have access to essential services such as home-delivered meals and medications during the harsh winter months. For more information or to volunteer, visit AlleghenySnowAngels.org .
Volunteers in all Allegheny County communities are needed year-round to transport seniors to medical appointments or to do shopping in the volunteer’s own vehicle. Volunteers can also do light yard, deliver meals, or help at senior centers.
For more information about these and other needs, please call the United Way helpline at 2-1-1 or email openyourheart@uwac.org.
The next Open Your Heart to a Senior volunteer information and orientation session will be held on March 8 at 11 a.m. at Mt. Lebanon Library, 16 Castle Shannon Blvd., Pittsburgh, PA 15228. Register by contacting Emilie at belingere@fswp.org or 412-661-1670 x 613.
