Be a snow angel! Keeping sidewalks free of ice and snow can be very
challenging for older adults and people with limited mobility. As a snow angel,
you can be good neighbour by clearing snow for those who need assistance. All
you have to do is adopt a sidewalk and keep it clear when it snows. Watch for
people in your neighbourhood who could use help removing snow and lend them a
hand. It’s also a great opportunity for students to complete volunteer hours
needed and to exercise outdoors! Learn more: www.kitchener.ca/snowangels
