COEUR D’ALENE, Idaho — As the snow piles up, of group of volunteers is making sure our vulnerable neighbors don’t get stuck inside this winter.
The North Idaho Snow Angels go from neighborhood to neighborhood, plowing, shoveling and scraping driveways and sidewalks for those who cannot do it themselves.
They run a Facebook group with over 3,000 members where people can ask for help.
“Once you do one of these, it’s kind of addicting,” one volunteer said. “You do the first one, and you want to do the next one, and the next one and the next one. It spreads so much joy through the community to set these people free.”
They efforts make it so when people venture out of their house, they have less of a risk of slipping and falling on snow-covered ground.
“It’s awesome. Sometimes, I clear a house and don’t even knock on their door and let them know that I’m coming. There’s regulars that we get to where we just naturally stop by. It’s like checking on family,” another volunteer said.
For more information on the group, visit their Facebook group.
