DoorDash Event at OI November 12th
This season some Borderlands’ P.O.W.W.O.W. locations will be participating in DoorDash delivery. In order to qualify for this service you will need to pre-register with Borderlands so they can determine if you live within a 10 mile radius of the location. We know this service will be extremely helpful to those of you who do not have transportation, or are unable to leave the house for other reasons.
November 12th Odyssey International will have a DoorDash Only Event. Those who live within a 10-mile radius of the school can have 50 lbs. of produce delivered to their homes. Those living outside the 10-mile radius should list Sienna Hills Elementary School (2400 N Sienna Hills Pkwy, Buckeye, AZ 85396) as their address when you pre-register and pick up their produce there between 8-9am Nov 12th.
As part of this Borderlands DoorDash partnership, supporters will be able to make a $15 donation and receive up to 50 lbs. of rescued produce. We will be restricted in the size of the boxes we can provide for delivery, so please understand you will typically have a few less varieties than the people that come out and support, in-person at the particular location.
Please complete our DoorDash registration form to see if you qualify to have your order delivered to your home (or if you need to pick up your order at Sienna Hills).
After you register you will be added to Borderlands’ DoorDash mailing list. Each week, when we have a Borderlands' P.O.W.W.O.W. location taking place close to you, you will get an email notifying you of your eligibility to participate. At that point you will get a link through which you can make your $15 (+$1 for processing fee) donation, and you will be added to our list for deliveries through DoorDash that week.
