Program:
The Hand Up Food Pantry believes in helping clients reach self-sufficiency by providing hand up, not just a hand-out, to clients experiencing food insecurity. They accomplish this by connecting clients to resources, in addition to providing emergency food relief to hundreds of families each day through our Home-Delivered Meals, onsite Drive-Thru Food Distribution, and community food distributions throughout San Diego County. The JFS Warehouse is located at the Balboa Avenue location and houses all food donations.
Goal of Position:
Warehouse volunteers are vital to helping us serve hundreds of people in need daily who have been impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic. In the warehouse, volunteers prepare boxes of frozen meals, groceries, and food distribution bags, as well as sort through donations. Volunteers get to fight food insecurity and help those most at risk during the pandemic in a tangible way.
