Help a neighbor with grocery shopping!
Towns served include Belmont, Brookline, Needham, Newton, Watertown, Waltham, Wellesley, and Weston
Join the Springwell Volunteer Team and make a difference in just 1-2 hours per week. As we grow older, some of the tasks we do every day can become increasingly difficult, like grocery shopping. As a volunteer Shopping Assistant, you will be matched one to one with an older adult in need of this service. Some folks would like a companion by their side as they navigate around the store, but most simply prefer a person to shop for them or pick up pre ordered groceries at the store.
