Encore Community Services hosts breakfast Monday-Friday every week, open to all seniors. We are looking for a volunteer to help manage the breakfast cart from 8:45am-10am. Duties include helping set up the breakfast cart with food and drink, serving pastries, breakfast sandwiches, coffee and tea, and some light clean up.
The mornings are quiet and pleasant at Encore's senior center. Approximately 25-50 seniors come in for breakfast. You will see familiar faces day to day and be a valuable part of our team!
We need help on Tuesday mornings. We are looking for a commitment of 1-4 days per month
(Tuesdays), for a period of at least 6 months.
