As part of its Food Delivery Networks program (https://sfcommunityliving.org/build-community/food-delivery-networks/), Community Living Campaign - which advocates for seniors and people with disabilities - bags and delivers groceries to seniors and people with disabilities in the Park Merced/University area on the 1st and 3rd Tuesday of every month.
Volunteers would assemble at the Lutheran Church of our Savior to help pack grocery bags at about 9 am and then deliver the groceries to seniors and adults with disabilities who live in the Park Merced / University Park area. We will provide a wagon and other supplies. Volunteers would deliver in pairs to make the deliveries easier. With both packing and delivery, the time commitment is about 3 hours.
Contact Kate Kuckro @ kate@sfcommunityliving.org to arrange to volunteer.

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.
