Are you in need of snow removal help, or are you willing to help others in your neighborhood tackle the cold, heavy white stuff this winter?
Denver Snow Angels is a Denver Human Rights & Community Partnerships' program to assist community members in Denver who are physically unable to shovel their front sidewalks, including adjacent ADA ramps and bus stops, during the cold winter months. This is a volunteer-based initiative created to connect neighbors with one another and to prevent possible fines for non-compliance with city ordinance.
Volunteer to Be a Denver Snow Angel
The Denver Snow Angels Program is available to Denver City and County residents who are:
- Older adults who are physically unable to shovel
- Neighbors living with a disability
- Financially unable to pay for a service
If you live outside the City and County of Denver, please contact 211 for information for additional resources near you.
