Opportunities From: HandsOn Twin Cities

Fraser Community Living is seeking volunteers to support a variety of hands-on projects across multiple homes that serve individuals with disabilities. Volunteers can help with critical home needs such as landscaping, painting, driveway and ramp repairs, tree removal, siding and window work, and general maintenance. In addition to one-time projects like deck improvements or kitchen remodels, we also welcome ongoing help with home organization, junk removal, and outdoor clean-up. Whether you're part of a group looking for a meaningful service opportunity or an individual ready to lend a hand, your time and skills can make a physical impact. If you're ready to give your time, Fraser can provide most of the materials needed. Join us in creating safe, welcoming, and well-maintained spaces where our community members can truly thrive!

Fraser is seeking volunteers to help refresh and update our clinics and facilities by painting and enhancing the space, starting with our Minneapolis Clinic. This is a great opportunity to contribute to creating a more welcoming and vibrant environment for the diverse community of families we serve. Fraser provides essential support to children, teens, and adults impacted by autism, developmental disabilities, and mental health challenges. Your support will help transform our clinic into a warm, inviting space where individuals can feel comfortable, supported, and valued. By volunteering, you’ll play a direct role in fostering an inclusive and positive environment where our clients, staff, and families can thrive together!

No prior painting experience is required, but a willingness to work as part of a team and an eye for detail is appreciated.

Responsibilities:
Assist with painting walls and touch-ups in common areas, therapy rooms, and other designated spaces.
Help organize and prep the area for painting, including moving furniture and covering surfaces.
Work alongside other volunteers and staff to ensure a clean, safe, and efficient painting process.
