Assist frail seniors who are unable to take care of minor chores on their own because of physical and financial limitations. Allowable tasks – which would improve the well-being and safety of seniors, would include, and are not limited to, installation of safety equipment, yard maintenance, carpet cleaning, wall & window washing
