Our mission is to create collaborative community partnerships dedicated to providing supportive services to, by and for elders, disabled adults and their families in order to maintain independence, enhance dignity and improve quality of life while continuing to live in their own home.
ElderBuilders has been an asset to the communities of Globe and Miami for the past 4 years. In December 2002, ElderBuilders set up a service in Payson, and has been providing services to persons with disabilities & low income, homebound seniors through funding provided by various organizations and tax deductible donations from clients & the general public.

The volunteer can take the client out for a drive or to a restaurant or movie; Light Meal Preparation, Housekeeping, Yard Work, Minor Repairs, Assistance with Letter Writing & Paying Bills; Respite for the caregiver.

We are looking for "Volunteers" who would enjoy paying a friendly visit, taking a client to lunch to a movie or for a ride; providing transportation to an appointment or the grocery store, running an errand, respite for a family caregiver, light housekeeping, light yard care, or light meal preparation. Any of these small gestures, can make a Big difference in someone's life. You are matched with a client by what you like to do and the amount of time you want to donate.
Volunteers are required to obtain a TB screening, provide a DMV driving record covering the past 3 years and take a CPR and First Aid training course. We ask for 3 reference letters. Volunteers are reimbursed for mileage. Set your own schedule.

home.
