York County seniors interested in help with spring cleanup, mowing, yard work, electronic devices, or with other household chores are encouraged to arrange for a Rent-A-Kid. The Rent-A-Kid program, sponsored by the York County Area Agency on Aging, is an intergenerational program that connects York County older adults and teenagers.
For more than 30 years, teenagers have been helping and learning from older adults through the Rent-A-Kid program. It gives individual teenagers the chance to help York County seniors age 60 or older with indoor and outdoor household chores. The senior needs to be agreeable to a reimbursement of a minimum fee per hour or a negotiated rate based on the job.
Interested York County seniors can request assistance by calling Hope Eberly at 717-771-9103 or 800-632-9073. Information is also available at http://www.ycaaa.org.
