A group of Northern Medical Program students are offering a free, no-contact grocery delivery service for vulnerable people in Prince George.
Medical students Jennifer Borchert and Nora Tong are the local coordinators for the Bag-Half-Full program, which was founded by a group of medical students in Edmonton. The program is intended to ensure people who are at high risk from COVID-19 can obtain the essentials they need while staying safe at home.
Customers can place an order online at the grocery store of their choosing, then Bag-Half-Full volunteers will pick it up and deliver it to their home.
Or customers can provide Bag-Half-Full with a grocery list, and the volunteers will shop for them and deliver the groceries. To use this option, Bag-Half-Full will send the customer a receipt and will require payment before the groceries are delivered.
To place an order, go online to www.baghalffull.com/prince-george or phone 778-350-1302 or 604-916-8723.
