Volunteer at Safe at Home Yard Clean-Up Day

As a volunteer, you can make a difference by making homes and yards safe and accessible for daily living and helping to prevent falls.

Projects may include:

  • General yard maintenance like raking, weeding, mowing and trimming
  • Cutting back overgrown bushes and shrubs
  • Clearing walkways
  • Removing debris, trash
  • Mulching and planting flowers
  • Companionship for the clients

If you are interested in bringing a group of volunteers to work together, please contact Dan Amonett by email or call (317) 803-6079 to discuss how we can best accommodate your group.

Volunteers must be 12 or older, and minors (ages 12-17) must be accompanied by an adult.

“It’s hard for me to do everything on my own, especially since I’ve lost my spouse and don’t have family. To have support from CICOA is a wonderful thing. It’s a relief.”

Carleen hopes to stay in her home in the Crown Hill neighborhood for as long as she can.
