Cedarbrook Fountain Hill needs a volunteer to do a little shopping for a few of our residents and for some bingo prizes. This generally takes about 2 or 3 hours once a week. The volunteer would stop by our office for a list of items needed, then go shopping (generally at Walmart and the dollar store) and return with items & receipts. Our residents always appreciate having someone who can shop for them. Volunteers can set their own day/hours and must pass PA Criminal Background Clearance.
