Do you know about the Dartmouth Home Assistance Program, an initiative designed to help eligible Dartmouth residents access support for home-related needs? The Town of Dartmouth has extended the application deadline, giving residents additional time to learn about the program and apply.

Interested? Attend an information meeting on September 8, where staff will provide an overview of the program, explain eligibility and the application process, and answer any questions.

It takes a lot of time to install a 57-foot ramp but our volunteers rose to the task! And 65-year-old Brenda in New Bedford is thrilled that she can leave her house again! What a difference a ramp can make in someone's life; please support this important program to help low-income families in our region.

Some of the benefits of volunteering include providing a sense of purpose, releasing 'feel-good' chemicals like dopamine and serotonin in the brain, improving muscle strength and balance, reducing loneliness and even living longer due to improved health outcomes and stronger social connections! What are you waiting for? Sign up now to volunteer at BBAHFH!
