Light Repair & Maintenance
The light repair and maintenance program focuses on helping those in need with repair and maintenance services they are unable to perform themselves, and may pose a danger if not repaired.
Volunteers in this area will assess each situation and determine the level of repair and maintenance required, assemble the team needed, schedule the date and time, and then perform the repair and/or maintenance.
This also includes performing yard maintenance services.
