Helping you meet your nutritional needs
Imagine not being able to drive to the grocery store or being unable to walk through the aisles because of mobility problems? What a scary feeling to worry about not having food in the house. Food insecurity is a terrible problem for many seniors and disabled individuals.
How We Can Help
Our volunteers go grocery shopping for individuals 60 and older who do not drive and have mobility issues. Shopping is done every other week at a local grocery store. It’s a great comfort to know that there are caring people in this world who will lend a helping hand to a neighbor in need.
NOW AVAILABLE: ONLINE SHOPPING! We will do the ordering for you!
FAQs about Grocery Shopping
The volunteer will come and pick up your list and a check or cash and go shopping for you.
A volunteer will get your list over the phone and put your order in online. The groceries will be delivered to your home and payment will be collected.
There is no cost for the ordering service but there is a delivery charge from the store.
In order to be eligible for our program, an applicant must be over the age of 60 and no longer driving.
