Riverlife came out to my house 9/2024 and again today, 3/18/25, to help me take care of things in my yard like overgrowth from neighbor's yards, fallen trees from recent storms, getting rid of my burn pile, and so much more. Coming home from work and seeing how amazing my yard looked sent me into tears of relief and I felt the stress immediately melt away. Since having COVID in 2021, I've been dealing with Long Covid much exhaustion, I have severe carpal tunnel which makes it difficult to squeeze tree limb loppers, rake, weed whack, etc., and a bad right knee that keeps me from doing a lot of stuff in my yard. It's so overwhelming!
The volunteers are very polite and work fast and they do a great job and always clean up after themselves. I don't know what I would do without RiverLife's help. I pray they can continue to help me here & there when they are able to find volunteers and the right equipment. I pray that God blesses the people of RiverLife and all the volunteers, because they have truly blessed me more than they can possibly know.
