Arlington Neighborhood Village helps seniors in Arlington age in place safely, while remaining connected to the community.
We are looking for volunteers to help with weekly delivery of food from the Arlington Food Assistance Center to some of our ANV members. These are especially vulnerable seniors who have difficulty leaving their apartments safely to get their groceries. They need a helping hand getting fresh produce, meat, milk and eggs.
In addition to their headquarters on S. Nelson Street, AFAC has a few distribution sites for apartment residents and a Saturday morning-only site at Clarendon United Methodist Church. Some of our members need pickup from S. Nelson Street, others from satellite distribution sites. This is a recurring, weekly activity; of course, if you are not available on a particular week we can always find a substitute. To apply to be an ANV Volunteer, you'll complete our Volunteer Application Form, take a training over Zoom, and pass a background check. Volunteers must be 18 and over.
