“… there’s a group of folks that just need a little help.” — Richie Miller
For the first time in its 20-year history, A Little Help had to place seniors on a waitlist due to skyrocketing demand.
Recently featured on Denver7 News, A Little Help’s volunteer drivers are helping older Coloradans stay independent and connected. Volunteers like Richie make sure older neighbors like Ellie can get to medical appointments, groceries, and community events — while building lasting friendships.
Why Volunteers Matter
- Every ride means an older adult can get to medical care, groceries, or social events.
- Without volunteers, many older adults face isolation and missed appointments.
- Volunteers provide more than a ride—they bring friendship, connection, and dignity.
