(Co-Vid Response) Help Those Most Vulnerable! Neighbors Care COVID-19 Shopper | Sacramento

Save to Favorites

As the COVID-19 pandemic affects us all, we thank you for your interest in partnering with Linc to serve its residents during such a critical time of need. As a Linc Housing COVID Care Shopper, you will help our residents obtain essential food and supplies that they may have limited access due to safety or financial concerns. Our residents include individuals who have experienced homelessness, seniors, transitional age youth, and other vulnerable groups.

Volunteers will shop for critical items at local grocery stores and deliver them to the community. The different items will be dropped off to the staff member onsite and volunteers will not be in direct contact with the residents to keep both the volunteer and residents safe. Your safety is a priority!
