As part of our life skills training for our clients with brain injury and stroke, we prepare a lunch meal each day in our kitchen. In addition, we have a bakery that performs job training. We are looking for 1-2 volunteers to assist us with our grocery shopping - preferrably on Mondays each week. A grocery list would be provided and assistance in unloading the car or van at our facility. We primarily shop at Jewel for weekly supplies and then 1-2 times a month a trip to Restaurant Depot or Costco is needed. Volunteers could help out once a week or every week, we are flexible on that and any help would be a valuable contribution to us. Volunteers must have valid auto insurance and a safe driving record.
