The winter season is upon us. In partnership with the City of Guelph, PIN –The People and Information Network - offers a volunteer snow removal service for eligible seniors and persons with physical disabilities. During a significant snow event, after the residential streets are plowed, volunteers visit their match within 24 hours to clear the windrow (the accumulation of snow left at the end of a driveway). Last year, 111 Snow Angels contributed 1,375 hours of snow shovelling service. In total, 145 residents were helped during the winter season. The support from this program is evident from feedback from one resident, “This service is not only helpful in a practise sense, but it also engenders a feeling of being connected to the community. Knowing that others care about my well-being is immensely important. My Snow Angel lending a helping hand when I most needed it makes all the difference in the world. For those volunteering for the service, it contributes a tremendous amount to the overall well-being of our community. Volunteering with the program is truly the neighbourly thing to do and is a great way for families to volunteer together, or high school students. For the residents of the Snow Angels program, it’s a vital service that allows them to stay connected to their community while living in their own spaces. In order to be eligible for this service, residents must: Reside in the City of Guelph in a single dwelling or semi-detached house with private driveway. Be unable to remove their own snow and cannot afford to pay for snow removal. Have no able-bodied person living in the household to shovel snow. Be a senior citizen (aged 65 years or older) and/or have a physical disability. Please note that the People and Information Network (PIN) reserves the right to ask for documentation verifying proof of disability and/or inability to pay for private snow removal services in order to ensure services are provided to those in our community who truly require assistance.
