Are you interested in volunteering with us? We can certainly use your help!!
As
T&E Care continues to grow - we have many ways that we could use
help of community members. Besides needing your help with donations of money and "stuff", we could use YOU! If you'd like to get more involved - here
are some of the many areas we can use help. We promise we will not
abuse your offer of help!  Contact us if you want to get involved!
- CPA - we need help at tax time with various tax forms. It's not a big job but one we are required to have a licensed CPA do.
- Grant writing - there are definitely grants out there
that we would qualify for, but we need help finding them and completing
the required papers.
- Legal advice - some families run into situations that
require legal advice. If you are a lawyer (or know one) who could give
us a little time now and then, we'd really appreciate hearing from you!
- Auto skills - many of the families we support have
OLD cars, or they are looking to buy a used car. We could really use
the advice of a mechanic (or someone who knows cars) now and then!
- Construction skills - many of the homes the families
live in are in a bad state of disrepair. If you are a handyman or
contractor, or have skills doing minor electrical or plumbing work,
please let us know!
- Job assistance - if you have human resource skills
(can look at resumes, can offer advise on interviewing, etc.) we would
love to put your name on our list. Often helping people get new jobs is
the most important step to getting them back on their feet!
- Financial skills - if you are good with budgeting, we
would love to hook you up with a family and help them work through some
financial difficulties that might be hindering their path to a better
future.
- Do you have a truck? We provide furniture to families
who have moved to a "new" home in this area and have no furniture. We
would love to call on you to drive your truck (or borrow your truck)
now and then when these moves are required.
- Do you have time? We have lots of things that you could do that just need TIME. From helping with projects to being a liaison to a family - we'd love to find out what your interests are.
- Do you love to shop (and get good bargains)? We have
to get items for families now and then, and it takes time to go
shopping and find the best bargains. If you love to shop, you may be
the right person for us!
- Do you have good publicity skills? We could use help putting out press releases, doing brochures, etc.
- Other skills - we know there are other ways people can help - let us know what your skills are and how we can best use your talent!
Remember - if everyone does a little, no one does a lot!

Home Make-over Project
Some
families are living in homes that need many repairs, with no way to
afford them. As we work with some of these families, we hope to offer
help fixing up their homes. If you have any skills related to home
repair: painting, plumbing, electrical, general contractor, etc. we'd
love to hear from you. If we identify a particular family needing
support, then we'll contact you for assistance. If you are just a
regular person who would love to offer assistance for one of these
projects - we'd love to hear from you, too! There are all sorts of ways that everyone can help out! Thanks!
