Service Details
Description:
The Get A Grip program helps Lanark County seniors get a grip on slippery winter walking conditions, for free. This program will give
a pair of anti-slip and easy to use ice grippers into the hands – and onto the boots – of any resident of Lanark County over the age of 65.
Anyone under the age of 65 can get a grip while helping a senior in their community, by buying a pair of ice grippers at $25, which is well under retail cost. A portion of this purchase helps fund the free-to-seniors distribution program in an ingenious “pay it forward” model. Anyone
who can afford to participate by paying it forward is encouraged to help with the program.
