Volunteers Needed for Geauga Spring Clean-Up Days

The Department of Aging needs your help! We would like to invite you and your friends to join us and volunteer during the 2014 Geauga Spring Clean-Up Days for Seniors! This worthwhile event begins April 5, 2014.

Many of our seniors can no longer rake their yards, weed flower beds, clean up yard debris, or wash windows. This is where you, as a volunteer, can truly make a difference. By volunteering just a few hours of your time, you can help a senior citizen remain independent and allow them to live in a safe, clean environment.

Tax Preparation Volunteers

United Way, in conjunction with the Ohio Benefit Bank, want to assist Geauga County residents to claim all of the tax credits and support programs available to them this year.

Volunteers will work at several different locations throughout Geauga County from February through March. If you can help prepare taxes for low income individuals, please contact Joann Randall 216-436-2045 or jrandall@uws.org.

As a member of the Body of Christ here in Cleveland, The City Mission has always had one central goal in mind- to reach hearts and change lives. The City Mission has been doing just that with the help of our volunteers, many of which are members of your church. Without them, we could not support the men, women, and children who walk through our doors every day.

With the Holiday Season just around the corner, we realize many people are looking to volunteer in a special way during this time of year. We have a wonderful opportunity to serve the women and children of Laura’s Home Women’s Crisis Center through our Holiday Fair, happening December 7 from 12-3pm. This is a great opportunity for both individuals and groups looking for a holiday service opportunity, as well as experiencing what The City Mission is all about.
