Mutual aid networks are local, volunteer-run collectives of neighbors helping neighbors in any way they can.
Many of our neighbors are still unable to leave their homes due to being elderly, immunocompromised, or just unable to afford the groceries needed for their families
Grocery Volunteers will receive a grocery request including a Shopping List, Requester Name, and Delivery Address. The volunteer will shop for the requested items and deliver them to the Requester, and then Volunteers are reimbursed once grocery receipts are submitted.
As volunteer schedules change due to an ever changing economic and social landscape, we are always in need of individuals willing to add a few extra items or a list to their personal grocery runs.
So far the Buffalo Mutual Aid Network has fed around 300 families and redistributed $9000 within the people in Buffalo. The need will continue, as will our need for wonderful volunteers able to donate a small portion of their time weekly or semi-weekly.
