Volunteers are needed to provide assistance with grocery shopping and essential errands for Ashland residents over 65 with underlying health conditions. It is especially important for those more vulnerable to COVID-19 to stay home and avoid exposure. If you fall in to the low risk category, are under 65 years old with no chronic health problems, and would like to help a neighbor with groceries and errands, please sign up to help at adoptneighbor.org. A simple background check is required to volunteer.
