Calling All Volunteers

For the last year, a team of compassionate, service-minded volunteers has been assisting LWSB residents who are unable to shop for themselves. Now, replacements are needed for those volunteers who have returned to work, are at capacity or have had to drop out for personal reasons.

If you have time to spare and would like to help your neighbors, contact Recreation at (562) 431-6586, ext. 398, or email kathyt@lwsb.com. Let us know where you live, when you are available and which stores you are able to shop at; include a phone number.

The Recreation Department will put volunteers in touch with people who have asked for help. Once a match is made, the individuals can work out the details.

No-contact service is recommended. Volunteers can take shopping lists over the phone, payment can be left at an agreedupon spot, and groceries put at the door. People who choose to meet face-to-face will need to wear masks and keep their distance.

This is not a GRF-sanctioned activity.
