SPRINGVILLE A new program aimed at assisting the elderly community in Springville, kicked off on Thursday, Dec. 10, 2020.
The grocery delivery program is possible through a partnership with the Springville Police Department and the Springville Senior Center.
Senior Center Director Brenda Weimer has worked to connect the police department with those in need. The police department then visits the recipient to get money, then picks up the groceries already bagged by Burton’s Food Store, and delivers them to the home of the recipient.
“I think it’s great because we have seniors that are at home and can’t drive or get out because they can’t see their loved ones right now,” Weimer said.
