  • New York, NY

Job Description

Overview

The Shopping Squad provides grocery assistance for Heights and Hills clients. Volunteers shop for clients, deliver groceries (mostly contactless) and receive reimbursement.

How it Works

Every Monday the Volunteer Department emails volunteers with client neighborhoods. Every Wednesday the department sends a “Shopping SOS” for trips that still need a volunteer. Respond only to the email for the trip you wish to help.

Volunteer Frequency

You can volunteer whenever you want. We only need a reply if you wish to help with a request; no reply is fine if you can’t help.

Eligibility and Expectations

  • Age 16+ (must have written consent if under 18)
  • Flexible, mature, kind, compassionate and reliable
  • Able to communicate verbally and in writing
  • Can follow through on commitments
  • Able to carry and deliver semi‑heavy orders
  • Willing to learn and follow organizational policies, confidentiality laws and volunteer guidelines
  • Willing to attend New Volunteer Training
  • Willing to complete a no‑cost criminal background check (for those 18+)

Preferred Skills

Spanish and/or Creole speaking

Location and Neighborhoods

We serve 21 neighborhoods in Brooklyn. Preferred volunteers live or can travel to Flatbush, East Flatbush, East New York, Crown Heights, or Bedford Stuyvesant. If you prefer other neighborhoods, there may be a wait.
