The City of Toledo proudly announces the return of the Snow Angels Program for its second year, a community-driven initiative that pairs volunteers with nearby residents to provide assistance with snow removal on sidewalks and driveways.

In the spirit of neighborly kindness, the Snow Angels Program is on the lookout for dedicated volunteers willing to make a positive impact in their community. As winter approaches, the program aims to create a network of support that not only ensures the safety of residents during inclement weather but also aids in maintaining clear pathways for essential service providers such as postal carriers, firefighters, police officers, and neighbors alike.

"Our city relies on the support of its residents, and the Snow Angels Program showcases that community spirit. As we kick off the second year, I encourage volunteers to join us in keeping our sidewalks clear and our community connected during winter,” Mayor Kapszukiewicz said.

By joining forces with fellow residents, volunteers become an integral part of a collective effort to keep sidewalks and driveways clear, making the city safer and more accessible for everyone.

How to Get Involved: Those interested in becoming a 'Snow Angel' please register by December 1st. Visit the official Snow Angels Program website to sign up: toledo.oh.gov/snow-angels 

The City of Toledo encourages all residents to participate in the Snow Angels Program and play a vital role in enhancing the quality of life for their neighbors. Together, we can create a winter wonderland that is not only beautiful but safe and accessible for everyone.

“Thanks to the support of our generous residents and community partners in last year’s pilot program, this year’s number of participants and volunteers has already surpassed the previous season. Hundreds of our neighbors are in need – sign up to be a Snow Angel today,” Valerie Fatica, Disability Manager, said.
