Help a neighbor access healthy food!

Join the Springwell Volunteer Team and make a difference in just 1-2 hours per week. As we grow older, some of the tasks we do every day can become increasingly difficult, like grocery shopping. Some seniors would like a companion by their side as they navigate around the store, and some simply prefer a person to shop for them. Shopping assistants can help with writing a shopping list, going to the store with or for seniors, and putting away groceries.
