For many people in our Northern Colorado community, getting their own groceries is a barrier to living a healthy lifestyle. The Volunteers of America Grocery Program helps by bringing groceries to participants in the program.
Volunteers are needed to call a few participants on Mondays or Wednesdays to collect their weekly order. We provide the order form and you do this from the comfort of your home! We also need shoppers in-store on Thursday mornings. These are great opportunities to lend a helping hand to seniors who are homebound or have transportation challenges. Our program support participants wanting to stay in their homes and provides an opportunity for healthy nutrition. We hope you'll join us!
