LawnBusters - lawn mowing for low-income seniors and people with disabilities in Strathcona County

What is LawnBusters?
LawnBusters is a volunteer lawn-care service for low-income seniors and persons with disabilities. The LawnBusters community program matches eligible residents with volunteers who commit to cutting grass in a resident's front and/or back lawn as needed. 

How does the program impact our Community?
Volunteers help residents remain in their homes if they are not able to mow their lawn themselves and cannot afford to hire someone else to do it.    LawnBusters volunteers are an essential part of how members of our community take care of one another and feel connected!

When and where does the program run?
The program start and end times will be determined by weather and grass growth.  Volunteers commit to supporting clients for the entire spring and summer mowing season.  Mowing happens as needed.  We do our best to match our volunteers with residents who live nearby, and we can help recruit someone to fill in when volunteer are away. (that also means we'd love to hear from you if you can't commit to a whole season, but could help out as needed)

Please note that we do require a criminal record check to be completed for LawnBusters, which is available free of charge from Strathcona County RCMP for volunteer positions.
