The Community Living Campaign offers grocery deliveries on the 1st and 3rd Tuesdays of the month to seniors in San Francisco and is seeking 1 driver and 2 helpers. All volunteers meet to pack groceries at 11am, then go out in pairs to deliver until 2:30pm. Drivers will need to provide proof of license and car insurance.
This is a fantastic opportunity for people looking to both help and connect with community members. Also, since we are all about community, we appreciate working with folks who enjoy checking in with our elderly and/or disabled neighbors, in addition to dropping off the groceries!
As a volunteer with this program, you are also eligible to take home a bag of groceries after each shift! When responding to this ad, please indicate whether you are interested in being a driver or helper.

Mission Statement
Community Living Campaign builds connections to help seniors and people with disabilities age and thrive in their own homes and communities.
Description
We work with San Francisco seniors and people with disabilities to increase the connections, resources, and support needed to age and thrive in their own homes and neighborhoods.
We organize free activities and programs like computer classes, healthy aging workshops, senior exercise groups, and grocery delivery. These activities offer practical support and teach valuable skills. But most importantly, they create opportunities for folks to make the friendships they need to age well at home.
Studies show that only 20% of what people need to age at home comes from formal services. The other 80% comes from friends, faith groups, and other community connections.
Meeting the needs of an aging population is a huge undertaking. So we also build coalitions, bringing together neighbors, community organizations, businesses, and City agencies to organize and advocate around issues that are too big for any of us to solve alone. Most recently, these have included the SF Tech Council and the Dignity Fund Coalition.
