Shoppers: Please rsvp to [email protected] or call 213 361 2075. We will have bonus dollars for you to spend at the markets!
Volunteers: If you haven’t volunteered for these events before here’s the rundown:
12 to 20 blind or low vision shoppers will arrive separately using ACCESS. You'll pair up with one of the shoppers (or two or more of you will help lead a group) around the market. If you're a people-person, this job is for you! Making conversation is the most important part of the day. Blind and low vision people often don't get help with folks who can describe the products and food they are shopping for.
A brief orientation on how to guide blind/low vision people precedes the day of shopping, conversation and fellowship.
If you can drive, that is an enormous help too. Please indicate if you are willing to drive, and include your address so we can match you with a shopper who is not far from where you live. This is for dropping off people after the market.
Volunteers are required to sign a simple waiver. Let us know if you can only be there for part of the day. Please provide an email address, as details sometimes change.
