Grocery pick-up - Wednesdays 11am
ORGANIZATION: West Valley Community Services
Please visit the new page to apply.
West Valley Community Services (WVCS) is in need of 2 community members to pick up groceries from Trader Joe's at Westgate Mall. In order to provide these goods from Trader Joe's to clients, volunteers help us pick up these donated items and bring them into our food pantry.
Volunteers could use their own (large) vehicle or use our company van to pick up the items and then deliver the goods to WVCS. This is a great opportunity for volunteers that have limited time to volunteer.
This volunteer shift is on Wednesdays, from 11AM-12:30PM. There are 2 spots available.
*West Valley Community Services (WVCS) is a basic needs organization that serves people in need in the Cupertino, Los Gatos, Monte Sereno, Saratoga, and West San Jose areas. The mission of WVCS is to encourage the sharing of community resources, to provide basic human needs in a caring and dignified environment, and to provide opportunities for volunteers to participate in WVCS' activities.
If you are interested in volunteering in the food pantry or in another capacity, please contact Mary Ciesinski, Community Engagement Manager, at 408-255-8033 ext 303 or at volunteer@wvcommunityservices.org
