We can help you help them! With your help, we can expand our services to provide assistance to more citizens in need within City of Temple limits.
Through the Good Neighbor Program, the City of Temple seeks volunteers who are willing and able to help Temple’s elderly and disabled with regular lawn care needs and other minor home improvement projects. Volunteers are invited to use the lawn care equipment that is available through the Housing Resource Center at no charge. Lawn work is completed on a monthly basis, or as needed. Minor home repair projects might include painting or clearing of brush/debris.
Volunteers will receive a Good Neighbor t-shirt and a lot of gratitude from a very thankful citizen!
All volunteers must consent to a background check to participate. Please allow for a minimum of 14 days for this process. Forms are now being accepted. Program runs April 1 through October 31.
