We have something like that in Ohio where I came from. It's called
Volunteers Express. I tried to get that to happen here in FL, but I
couldn't get people to do it. they have something here called Comfort
Keepers but it costs quite a bit of money. It's awesome though to have
somethingl ike that. My friend Ronda Rolph and I met that way in Ohio and
then she moved away and got married, and now I live down here, but we still
keep in touch as much as possible.
