- Neighbor Reach
Neighbor Reach is our fast-response delivery program. When someone needs food, household items, or essential supplies, we match them with a nearby volunteer who can help. Most requests are filled within 48 hours. We focus on short-term needs that often fall through the cracks—like helping a parent waiting on benefits, or a neighbor recovering from surgery.
“I wasn’t sure where else to go. I filled out the request form, and two days later, someone dropped off groceries and checked in on me. That small act gave me the energy to keep going.”
— Malik, program recipient
We partner with local clinics, schools, and housing groups who refer people to us. We also take direct requests through a simple form. Volunteers pick up and deliver items, check in at the door, and provide a friendly moment of connection.
