Connecting People with Phone and Online Grocery Options

If you know of someone who could benefit from this information but who may not have access to the internet, please share it with them. Together we can minimize the impact COVID19 will have.

During this time of social distancing, being encouraged to stay at home from non-essential outings, and stores being out of stock, it is important that we make sure everyone gets the supplies they need, especially if they are particularly susceptible to Corona Virus (COVID19). To that end, we are compiling a list of stores that offer phone or online ordering and delivery. These services are great for everyone but essential to those who are at most risk for COVID19.

If we are missing a service in your area or if you are able to help us research stores in your area, please get in touch.

We will update this list as more information becomes available.

Please note:This resource has moved to BlindHub Canada, our new centralized resource exchange. It can be found here.
