Grocery Deliveries
Grocery deliveries are, funnily enough, our bread and butter! We will do your shopping and deliver your groceries safely, for free! All you need to cover is the cost of the groceries and we'll handle the rest. The process works best if you are able to call the store in advance to place your order and pay with your credit card over the phone. To find a more detailed process of how our grocery deliveries work as well as additional information and options, please check out our About Us page.

Here at Manos de Mapaches, we understand that social nurishment is just as important as that of the physical body. That's why we not only offer free grocery deliveries but we also offer Community Connections! Community Connections is a sort of digital "Pen Pal" that will connect you to one of our volunteers through mediums such as emails, phone calls, or video chats. It all depends on how you would feel most comfortable. Isolation is a difficult state for all of us and Community Connections is here to make us all feel a little less lonely. If you are interested in signing up, please click on the Request Services button at the top of our page!
Please Note: Our volunteers are not trained professionals and should under no circumstances be used as substitutes for therapy or crisis outreach.
