Greenburgh Looking For 'Snow Angels' To Help Clear Remains Of Storm

GREENBURGH, NY — Snow Angels are needed in the Town of Greenburgh.

Supervisor Paul Feiner said he’s been getting lots of calls from residents who are concerned how they will be able to clear their driveways after the storm finally ends.

“We have a snow angel program, but not enough volunteers to meet the demand,” he said. “And some of the volunteers who offered to help last year are not available today.”

Feiner wants people to let him know if they — or their sons or daughters — would be interested in helping a neighbor clear his or her driveway of snow Tuesday or Wednesday.

If yes, he wants to know whether you would expect to be paid.

From his email:

If there are senior citizens/disabled residents on fixed incomes who need help are you willing to help as a volunteer? (Some seniors have - in the past - asked that a walkway be cleared to enable first responders or meals/wheels providers get to them). If the answer is yes - please advise what criteria you will use to determine whether you will be volunteering.

What neighborhoods of the town are you willing to provide help to?

How soon do you think you can be of help? today...tomorrow...later this week?

Some residents always complain about the large piles of snow in front of their homes after the plows finish their job (and after their driveways were cleared). Would welcome people who might be able to assist in helping to clear that. This work shouldn't take as long as clearing a driveway.

Can I share this information with people who contact me. How should they contact you? Phone/e mail.

“I really appreciate your help,” Feiner said. “Neighbors helping neighbors. That is what makes Greenburgh special.”
