 Description


As part of our services among isolated, elderly, in-need homeowners, we deploy volunteers to perform skilled 
carpentry, roofing, plumbing, electrical or masonry work as "follow up" to our unskilled teenage crews.  Work is 
performed at no cost to the homeowner.  The Pittsburgh Project supplies all building materials and supplies 
needed to complete the tasks.


 Requirements 


Volunteers should possess a desire to care for vulnerable aging people within our community and a sincere 
respect for people of different backgrounds, races, faiths and cultural groups.  Volunteers will need to complete a 
Skills Inventory Form to help us know a bit about their areas of expertise.  They also need to provide their 
own transportation to and from the homeowners' home.  They must be 21 years or older, and must provide two 
references and complete applicable record checks.
