Cart to Heart is Ready to Deliver!

Spring 2010

Ursuline Senior Services is now offering volunteer shopping services with our Cart to Heart program, throughout Allegheny County. The program was developed in response to a frequently expressed need of the seniors we serve for grocery shopping assistance. The Cart to Heart program offers grocery shopping services to homebound seniors. The program provides shopping service once or twice a month, delivers groceries right to the senior's kitchen, and provides a friendly visit from the volunteer.
