Volunteer
Simple acts of kindness go a long way
Your time is a valuable gift to share that makes a big impact for seniors and people with disabilities.
They love to see your smiling face or hear your friendly voice on the phone.
Volunteer opportunities are available for individuals or groups, long-term or just for one special project like our annual Safe at Home community volunteer day.
The CICOA Volunteer Program will connect you with people and programs that will utilize your skills and talents to make a difference to others in our community. If you’re handy with a power tool or a paintbrush, you want to visit with a senior, or you can help with office tasks, we have a volunteer opportunity for you.
The activities listed below are some of our current volunteer opportunities. The list, however, is not comprehensive. Periodically other needs arise, or volunteers offer new services that benefit CICOA and our clients. If you have any questions, please call or email CICOA’s Volunteer Coordinator at volunteer@cicoa.org or 317-803-6003.

Provide skilled and unskilled help to clients who have home maintenance needs or other simple projects, such as hanging pictures or curtains or installing grab bars. Great for individuals or groups.
Yard Work & Snow Removal
Help a senior by doing general yard work, raking leaves, shoveling snow or other periodic, seasonal projects. Also great for individuals or groups.
Group Projects
Looking for a meaningful team building experience? We can accommodate companies, schools, clubs, faith communities and other groups who seek to give back to the community while working together.

Perform administrative tasks such as filing, making telephone calls, entering data, or performing other office tasks at our office during regular business hours.
Holiday Assistance
Almost 700 older adults and people with disabilities receive some extra holiday assistance each year thanks to generous volunteers, donors and partners. CICOA's Very Merry Days program provides donations of food, gift cards, and gifts to clients in greatest need.
