Rescue Transform Yard Work Landscaping for Elderly Disabled US Army Veteran (Salt Lake City UTAH)

Volunteer Opportunity: Help Transform the Property of a Local Army Veteran

We’ve been made aware of a meaningful opportunity to assist a disabled Army veteran currently recovering in a rehab facility following recent surgery. With no immediate family around, a kind neighbor stepped up to request help on his behalf.

The Situation:

The front yard is heavily overgrown, with grass reaching 2–3 feet tall

There are numerous feral cats on the property, creating sanitation concerns

The work will be extensive and hands-on — perfect for those who aren’t afraid to roll up their sleeves

This project isn’t easy — but that’s exactly why it matters. When no one else can step in, that’s when we do. We’re seeking a dedicated group of helpers who are willing to tackle a challenging but deeply rewarding cleanup to bring this veteran’s home back to a livable condition.

Important Notes:

The request came from a neighbor, so we are working on establishing direct communication with the veteran himself before beginning any work — this is essential for transparency and respect.

Due to the nature of the property, safety precautions will be necessary, and this may not be suitable for all volunteers.
