Greenburgh Seeking 'Snow Angel' Volunteers

GREENBURGH, NY — With the possibility of snow in the forecast this week, it's time to begin thinking about snow removal. Greenburgh Supervisor Paul Feiner is once again putting out a call for "snow angel" volunteers.

"During the past 28 years, volunteers have helped the elderly and disabled by clearing snow from their driveways," he said in an email.

"Many of the snow angels who have helped in the past are in college and unavailable so we're looking for replacement snow angels," Feiner said.

He said some of the seniors who need the assistance have medical needs and require paths to be cleared in the event of a medical emergency.

Others, Feiner said, are looking for help so they can get mail and prescription drugs and even food delivered to them.

While most snow angels volunteer their services, if anyone would only help out if they were paid for their efforts, they should let the organizers know.

Feiner said that high school students Jared Turell and Miles Cooperman are volunteering their time coordinating the program.

He said also that The Chelsea, the new assisted living facility on Dobbs Ferry Road, has offered to donate $1,000 to the snow angels program.

If interested or for more information, email Feiner or the program.
