🥕 Grocery Grab is Back! 🥛

We’re excited to serve families this summer! Please help us keep distribution safe and efficient by remembering:

✅ Distribution is first come, first served. Due to overwhelming demand, groceries may run out during the first week. Thank you for your patience as we work to serve as many families as possible.

🚗 Do not arrive before 4:00 PM. Early arrivals create traffic and safety concerns and may be asked to return later.

📍 Follow the posted traffic flow map.

📱 Have your QR code ready and all participating children in the vehicle. Groceries can only be distributed for eligible children present at pickup.

🥛 All groceries, including milk, must be accepted. Partial distributions are not allowed.

🚙 Make sure you have enough vehicle space. Each child will receive one grocery bag and one gallon of milk.

Thank you for helping make Grocery Grab a success. We look forward to serving your family this summer!
