Rockville Needs Volunteers to Shovel Snow for Seniors

City Pairs Volunteers with Senior Neighbors

Rockville is a city of neighborhoods with a tradition of looking out for one another, and never is that more true than when we’re helping neighbors who may not be able to help themselves.

Each winter the Rockville Senior Center looks for ways to help older Rockville residents with snow removal. If you’re handy with a shovel and don’t mind digging out an extra driveway or clearing a walkway or two, you can sign up and volunteer for the program.

The senior center’s home maintenance coordinator organizes the program and can connect you with neighbors in need near your home. What better way to celebrate the season of selfless giving?

To sign up to volunteer or to request snow-shoveling assistance, call 240-314-8819 or call the Senior Center Support Services office at 240-314-8810. To sign up for assistance or volunteer online, visit www.rockvillemd.gov/seniorsnowremoval.

For more information about Rockville Senior Services, call 240-314-8800 or email [email protected].

When winter weather strikes, turn to the city’s website at www.rockvillemd.gov/winterweather. Closure and snow emergency information is available at www.rockvillemd.gov/weather, and through email notices, social media, and by signing up for Alert Rockville notifications.
