Food Shelf

We need help on Saturday, August 26th, to give out food to the community.

Residents of St Paul's east side and Maplewood are invited to participate in this distribution, with Hispanic, Hmong, and Karen families the main focus. Participants will stop by each section of our Food Shelf, and a volunteer will help them select the best options for their family.Those who speak a language other than English are encouraged to volunteer, though it is certainly not a requirement.

* Volunteers will help set up tables before and put food away after the event, along with some minor cleanup.

* Staff will work with each volunteer to find the most suitable tasks during event.

* Please wear comfortable clothing and closed toed shoes (This is an indoor event).

* Staff will have granola bars and water at event, but please feel free to bring your own snacks and drinks.
