Volunteer group helping homebound elderly in Chandler and Gilbert

About Care was founded in 2006 and works to empower independent living for the homebound elderly and disabled residents of Chandler and Gilbert. By recruiting and training volunteers, the organization provides a range of essential services that help neighbors meet their basic needs while preserving self‑respect and dignity. Volunteers assist with transportation to appointments, case‑management coordination, respite care for family caregivers, friendly visits, minor home repairs, shopping and errands, and reassurance phone calls. The volunteer program is open to community members who wish to make a tangible difference in the lives of seniors and people with disabilities. Through these hands‑on efforts, About Care helps keep people in their own homes, supports their independence, and fosters a sense of community connection. The organization’s mission is rooted in compassion and service, and it continues to grow its volunteer base to meet the evolving needs of the local population. By engaging volunteers, About Care also promotes social inclusion and reduces isolation among seniors, strengthening the fabric of the Chandler and Gilbert communities.
