Welcome to Plain-O Helpers!
Plain-O Helpers (POH) is a faith-based handyman program of seniors helping other seniors with minor home maintenance and repairs. We target seniors, age 60 and older, and disabled clients with a Plano address or residing in the Plano Independent School District. The program provides maintenance and repair services for the home, with a key focus on safety, security, and health issues.
Our volunteers work on Friday mornings from 8:45 AM to noon. Typical jobs are an hour or less. Each team of at least two volunteers will visit multiple clients during the same morning. Plain-O Helpers members must all pass background checks before becoming a member.
There is no charge for the help we provide. For clients that can afford it, donations for any material cost are welcome. Other donations allow us to cover material costs for clients who are less fortunate.

Please call us and leave a message to schedule a visit (or to find out if we do what you have in mind) or submit an online Service Request. We will call back to get any clarifying or missing information and to set up a Friday morning for the visit.
If you have any questions about what we do, please call us or send an email.
