Sort, pack, and stack! Roll up your sleeves and help Emergency Food Network sort through food donations. The food needs separated into categories, checked for damage, and packed up to go out to Pierce County food banks. This is a great project for individuals or small groups up to 4.
No experience is necessary but volunteers need to be able to lift to 40 pounds. EFN staff will provide training and supervision. Registration is required. The minimum age to volunteer at this event is 18.

Mission Statement
The mission of Emergency Food Network is "to provide Pierce County with a consistent, diverse and nutritious food supply so that no person goes hungry."
Description
"Currently, 1 in 10 people in Pierce County face food insecurity, and this need is continuing to rise. Through our 75+ Partner Programs (food pantries, meal sites, and shelters) all over Pierce County, EFN distributed over 14 million pounds of food in 2023 to our neighbors in need, including fresh produce grown at EFN’s Mother Earth Farm. This work was made possible by our 2,000+ volunteers, who worked over 12,000 hours in 2023. Volunteer work is vital in helping EFN pursue our mission of ensuring no person goes hungry. Volunteer opportunities include the Repack Project, Home Delivery, EFN’s Mother Earth Farm, and special events throughout the year. We hope you will join us!"
