    Reference Information

    A minimum of two references are required; at least one must be a professional reference. We will contact your references to help us assess personal traits such as sense of responsibility and compassion for working with older adults. References are required because you will be working with older adults and/or may occasionally have access to sensitive information.

    Outdoor chores
    Volunteers are needed throughout the spring, summer, and fall to help with yard clean-up, garden prep, raking, and other outdoor projects on an “as needed” basis.  There are also ongoing, recurring seasonal opportunities for lawn mowing and snow removal.

    Home maintenance
    Volunteers with skills in carpentry, electrical work, plumbing, and painting help with home maintenance. 
    Volunteer handypersons are only assigned projects that do not require a licensed professional or permit.

    Technology support
    Tech-savvy volunteers with patience and a passion for helping older adults help support regularly scheduled one-on-one clinics in various locations. Help with everything from texting, email, and video calls to device setup and security, adjusting features and functions, troubleshooting and more.

    Administrative support
    These volunteers come in to our Minnetonka office to
    help with mailings, data entry,
    research projects, phone calls and more.
