Programs - Volunteers in Action

All of our programs assist elderly and disabled in the Greater Denver Metro area to be able to live independently.

Faith in Deed  Volunteers are

matched individuals who

need help with some of the basic activities of daily living such as transportation to doctor's appointments, grocery shopping, or reading mail for the visually impaired. Involvement can be on a one-time or ongoing basis.

M.O.V.E.D. The Moving Operation ofVolunteers for the Elderly and Disabled assists individuals who cannot afford to hire a moving company.

Orthopedic Bank Used durable medical equipment is loaned to individuals free of charge.

Used Car Ministry Accepts donated vehicles in good working condition which in turn are given to low-income families who need a car for work, education or medical reasons. Families are usually referred to the program by the deacons of their church.

Service Projects Several times a year volunteers work as team members for larger community activities, such as Make a Difference Day and Extreme Community Makeover.

Deacon Education Agency staff train lay leaders and church members on the dynamics of mercy ministry within their congregations and community, and give opportunity for them to join the volunteer base of the agency.
