Helping Hub
The Helping Hub connects neighbors in need with neighbors who want to help. At Crossroads, we desire to meet the needs of aging members within our community who are struggling. We have volunteers who are ready to help with the following services:
Transportation
Volunteer drivers can provide rides to and from appointments within the Estes Park area. On special occasions volunteers may be able to take clients to doctors’ appointments in the Front Range.
Errands
Volunteers are available to run local errands like picking up groceries from Safeway.
Computer and Technology Help
Volunteers can help our seniors with setting up and troubleshooting basic digital devices, like TV’s, Phones, Computers, Tablets, etc.
Snow Shoveling
During winter months’ volunteers will provide snow removal for small areas when there are no other options for snow removal.
Handy Help
Volunteers can help with a variety of minor handyman type fixes, swap out light bulbs, swap out batteries in smoke detectors, tighten faucets, check running toilets, tighten doors, etc.
Light Cleaning/Organizing
Help with vacuuming, sweeping, wiping down kitchen counters, organizing papers, mail, etc.
Care Calls & Friendly Visits/ Walks
Oftentimes our seniors can be lonely and just need a friendly visit, or a check-in from a friendly volunteer.
Weekly Caregiver Respite
When family is caring for a loved one who is ill, recovering from surgery, cancer treatment, or in palliative/hospices care volunteers are available to spend time with clients so that caregivers have get some time free.
