Activity Description

  • Please sign up using the link that is assigned for Generation SERVE.
• Generation SERVE adheres to the following COVID-19 policies to help keep your family and ours safe. We will continue to respect our partners' mask requirements as well as your family's decision around wearing masks.

Activity Directions

• Enter the ERJCC parking lot on Atwell Street, through the gate furthest from S. Braeswood.
• Take an immediate right and pull up to the Weingarten building where they will be ready to load your vehicle.
• Each driver/car is assigned a route for delivery to 10-12 households and will take you 1-2 hours. You will not need to return to the JCC. Drivers must be at least 18 and GPS is highly recommended.

If you have any questions please contact Angelica Vasquez, MOW Program Coordinator at mow@erjcchouston.org or 832-408-3532.

• Delivery Note: If a client isn't home when you deliver, please make sure to call them in case they can't hear the door. If you can't reach them, you can leave the groceries at the front door because they are getting all pantry staples that do not require refrigeration.
