Grocery Shopping Volunteers with their own vehicle will be collecting 8-12 shopping lists from the African American Men's Project (AAMP) clients or Women, Infant and Children (WIC) clients at NorthPoint on Mondays and/or Tuesdays 5:00-6:30pm and then shopping for participants at the Wirth Co-op or North Commons down the street from NorthPoint.
Participants can have $15 of groceries purchased for each session. Grocery Shopping Volunteers will sort and deliver the food to NorthPoint after shopping. This project helps clients with transportation barriers access nutritious food.
Volunteers are required to have their own vehicle and be able to track purchases and not exceed $15 per person. Volunteers should enjoy grocery shopping and abiding by the customers' wishes.
If you cannot volunteer every week, how about every other week or once a month on a Monday or Tuesday 5:00-6:30pm?
