Store to Door

Mission

Store to Door supports independent living for homebound, predominantly low-income seniors and adults living with disabilities in the Portland Metro area by providing food access, food security, social connection, and community support.

Bottom Line

Every week, Store to Door volunteers take grocery orders by phone, shop, and deliver to the doors of more than 600 Portland-area older and adults and people with disabilities who can't get to the store on their own. 

Because clients are matched with the same friendly voices and faces each week, every delivery and call doubles as a wellness check; our Friendly Callers, Resource Referral Program, and network of community partners help clients stay connected, healthy, and living independently at home. 

With grocery prices climbing and food assistance programs at risk, reaching our Give!Guide goal will help us continue to provide the dependable, vital, volunteer-based services so many of our homebound neighbors rely on.

Quote

“As a 71-year-old disabled client who is homebound much of the time and has a service animal, my weekly delivery is about much more than groceries. Sometimes, she is the only friendly face I see all week, and her kindness really makes a difference in my day.” - Margaret, Store to Door Client

“I'm 100 years old now, and one thing I've learned is to notice these small gestures. You have all been so wonderful to me, and to many others.” - June, Store to Door Client
