West Valley Community Services (WVCS)* is looking for 1 volunteer to assist with Wednesday
morning Grocery donation pickup. This shift is from approximately 8am-9am and you will be trained by staff onsite. Volunteers meet at the WVCS, drive one of our vans to the grocery store, pick up the donations then deliver them back to the WVCS office. The food goes straight to our Food Pantry where it is served that day.
WVCS has wonderful relationships with local grocery stores to provide clients with fresh produce and bread, things that many typical food pantries cannot provide. In order to provide these goods to clients, we look for volunteers to help us pick up these donated groceries and bring them into the food pantry.
*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.
