Volunteers visit with a frail senior for 2-4 hours per week to provide non-medical support, companionship, and socialization. Activities may include taking walks, playing cards, working puzzles, watching TV or movies, or just reminiscing.

Volunteer: Lawn Mowing Services for Seniors

At CCWC, we’re committed to helping our senior community members live with dignity and independence. One of the ways we do this is by offering free lawn mowing services to seniors who are unable to maintain their yards on their own. This service helps prevent local ordinance citations, reduces safety hazards, and keeps our seniors' outdoor spaces looking cared for and respected.

What We’re Looking For:
We’re seeking reliable, compassionate volunteers who are willing to lend a hand (and a lawn mower!) this summer. Volunteers will be matched with one or more seniors and commit to mowing their lawns at least every other week through the summer season.

What You’ll Need to Know:

CCWC will provide a push mower Volunteers must be able to transport the mower using their own vehicle You’ll be making a direct impact on someone’s life, right in your community This is a great opportunity for teens (with parent permission), families, or anyone looking to give back outdoors

Why It Matters:
Your time and effort help preserve the dignity of our senior neighbors while ensuring their homes remain safe and ordinance-compliant. It's more than just mowing a lawn—it's showing care, compassion, and community spirit.
