N2N: Older Adult Needs Washer & Dryer

A senior veteran needs a gently used washer & dryer. The resident is raising two grandchildren, and physical constraints make getting to a laundromat difficult. This family of 4 would appreciate any help locating a washer and dryer to keep up with the mounting laundry.

Once a washer & dryer is donated, moving help will be needed. Please indicate if you can assist with moving.

N2N: Hoyer Lift Needed

A Westerville resident is looking for a gently used Hoyer Lift for her elderly father. Her father's strength has declined and he has had multiple falls recently. Caregivers are there to help with transfers, but a lift would provide everyone with immediate comfort and safety and help him remain in his home.

N2N: Older Adult Neighbors in Need of Snow Removal Services

Through the Leadership Westerville Snow Patrol program, there are currently 25 older adults who have not been matched to a volunteer for snow removal during the 2024-2025 winter season. The Westerville Snow Patrol Program pairs older residents and residents with disabilities with nearby neighbors who volunteer to assist them with snow removal on their sidewalks, walkways, and driveways. Along with fostering stronger community relationships and relieving some of the stress that comes from a snowfall or freeze, The Snow Patrol makes our sidewalks safer for those who are outside during the winter weather – like postal carriers, firefighters, police officers, and our neighbors.

We are looking for volunteers to assist their older adult neighbors this winter!
