Neighborworks, SafteyWorks For Seniors Volunteer Day

NeighborWorks Northeastern Pennsylvania (NeighborWorks) will serve eight older adult-headed households with much needed exterior painting and small repairs throughout the City of Scranton as part of the SafetyWorks for Seniors volunteer day on Thursday, July 2.

More than 80 volunteers will be mobilized from MTF Biologics to make this volunteer event possible. Volunteers will provide the households with exterior painting and various other home repairs.
“Highmark is honored to continue our support the NeighborWorks Aging in Place program. We are deeply committed to helping older adults live safely and with dignity in their homes,” said Katie Kemmerer, Community Affairs Regional Manager, NEPA, at Highmark Blue Cross Shield, “We’re so proud to be part of this initiative, bringing vital volunteer services to [these households] in NEPA. Thank you, NeighborWorks, and all
of the day’s volunteers, for your incredible work!”
