From Senior Services:
“A gentleman I’m working with is in need of a dehumidifier. He has severe health problems, and the humidity in the summer is very difficult for him. If you have a de-humidifier that is in good working condition, or would be willing to purchase one, please contact Savannah Turner at savannah.turner@clintonvillecrc.org or 267-3050. Thank you!”
From Senior Services:
“I have an older gentleman that has run into some troubles at his home. He needs assistance with his washer. It is presently filled to the top with water and has ceased working. Is there a handyman out there willing to check out this man’s washer and hopefully fix it? If you are able to assist, please contact me at a.taylor@clintonvillecrc.org or at 267-3050”
“Met with an older adult who is in need of some spring cleaning!!! Gutter cleaning that is! She resides in a home with three stories and therefore needs assistance with this task. Her only income is social security and though is resourceful struggles to maintain her home. Would anyone be willing to pay for the cost of this service or know of a company that would be willing to donate this service to an older adult in need? In addition to this need, this woman also is in need of a Kroger gift card, periodically an old wound re-aggravates on her right ankle, which requires her to bandage it daily. She purchases these bandages at Kroger and reports each box, which she goes through one daily costs $3-4.00, so over a month’s time, the cost is around $100.00. When I last visited this woman, she had her ankle wrapped in paper towels as she could not afford to buy the bandages, is anyone willing to provide this woman with a gift card to Kroger to allow her to purchase much needed bandages? If so, please contact me at a.taylor@clintonvillecrc.org or at 267-3050. THANK YOU!!!”
“Have a senior that is in need of an electric stove, she is presently using a hot plate as she can’t afford to have it fixed or purchase a new one. If anyone is getting a new stove that they would like to donate, please contact me at 614-267-3050 or a.taylor@clintonvillecrc.org. Thank you…”
From Senior Services:
“Request for some help spring cleaning, working with an older adult that needs assistance cleaning her blinds in her townhome along with the washing of her back window both on the inside and outside.

If you would like to assist this older adult clean-up for spring, you will need to obtain a background check or be willing to be accompanied by a staff person to accomplish this task in the senior’s home. If you can help, please contact me at a.taylor@clintonvillecrc.org or at 614-267-3050.”
“An older adult I am working with would truly love to have a loveseat to enjoy in her living room. A loveseat preferred over a couch as she is in a senior apartment and has limited space.

“I have a lady that I am working with that has multiple needs: this woman sleeps on the couch in her living room, she would appreciate a “new” couch for her to sleep on, her only request with this couch, is that it has cushions that are non-removable, if you have a couch in better condition with cushions that are non- removable, please consider donating your gently used couch to this woman? She is also in need of a kitchen cabinet with shelves to store her pantry items, she presently has her food stored all over her kitchen counters and table, are you able to her store her food appropriately and free up some of her kitchen space?
