Volunteer Snow Angels Needed in Bolingbrook

We are looking for 50 local volunteers for Bolingbrook's 2026/27 Snow Season!

Snow-covered sidewalks can be hazardous for everyone. Bolingbrook’s Snow Angels Program pairs older residents (and residents with physical disabilities) with nearby neighbors who volunteer to assist them with snow removal on their sidewalks and walkways.

Along with fostering stronger community relationships and relieving some of the stress that comes from a snowfall or freeze, Snow Angels make our sidewalks safer for those who are outside during the winter weather – like postal carriers, delivery drivers, public safety (firefighters, police officers), children walking to school, and other neighbors walking their pets.

However, this year we only have seven volunteers enrolled so far, and we need fifty angels enrolled before we can open up registration for our elderly neighbors in-need!

** We are NOT currently accepting enrollments for neighbors in need. Once we have enough volunteers enrolled, we will open up registration for our neighbors requesting assistance. Please help us spread the word so we can get some additional volunteers enrolled. **

Note: This program is not sponsored or organized by any private or public entity. This is a completely volunteer, resident-driven program!
