Do you like to grocery shop? Would you enjoy helping seniors and people with disabilities maintain their independence?
Join us to grocery shop for those who are homebound. Think of it as a fun in-store scavenger hunt for a great cause!
What: Volunteer grocery shoppers receive a client’s grocery list and walk around the store to find each item. At times, the volunteer will need to call a client to ask clarifying questions about missing items or substitutions. Volunteer shoppers are not responsible for purchasing or delivering groceries, just shopping and having fun!
