Grocery Assistance Program (GAP)

The Grocery Assistance Program (GAP) in Olney, MD, is dedicated to providing essential food assistance through volunteer-supported grocery shopping and delivery services for those unable to shop independently. This program ensures that clients only pay for the groceries purchased by their assigned volunteers, while the service itself comes at no additional cost. Volunteers are committed to shopping, delivering, and even assisting with putting groceries away when necessary, making it easier for individuals aging in place or those receiving home-delivered meals to access the nourishment they need. GAP stands as a vital resource for our community, bridging the gap in food accessibility and promoting independence and wellbeing.
