A Little Help Transportation Program
A Little Help is a Colorado-based 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization that connects volunteers with older adults to help them thrive in their own homes and communities. The organization began in 2005 as a grassroots effort called Washington Park Cares, founded by a group of neighbors in Denver who wanted to support older adults aging in place. Inspired by the national Village Movement, they established a model of intergenerational support, and in 2007, the organization officially became a 501(c)(3) nonprofit. A Little Help has since expanded its reach beyond Denver to serve communities in Jefferson, Arapahoe, Adams, Douglas, Larimer, and Weld counties. The core of A Little Help's mission is to foster a sense of community and combat social isolation among older adults by providing essential non-medical services. Volunteers, who are neighbors of all ages, offer assistance with transportation to medical appointments, grocery stores, and social outings. They also provide help with yard work, minor home repairs, technology assistance, and running errands. Beyond practical support, the organization emphasizes building meaningful connections through friendly visits and calls. All services are provided by volunteers, and the organization operates on a "pay what you can" membership model, ensuring that financial constraints do not prevent older adults from receiving help. The organization is committed to creating stronger, more engaged neighborhoods where every generation feels valued and supported.
