    Description

    Because You Believe in Helping Others - let your Actions SPEAK! Be Great at Being GOOD.

    Because you have the energy, passion and time to make our community better, you want a volunteer opportunity that can make that happen. Here's how! Volunteers with Services for the Blind take walks, go out for coffee, visit the park or try the farmer's market and when they do, they take along a neighbor or their neighbor's shopping list. Our friend is managing diabetes, so they need help finding the right healthy foods while staying within a small budget and maybe can't see the prices clearly, which makes shopping alone difficult.

    If you’re able to give me a ride and help me navigate the store, it would mean a lot—much more affordable than using delivery or ride services and can help stretch my modest budget.
