We are looking for dedicated volunteers to help with our weekly food distributions! This position is for those who want to work closely with the community, helping neighbors in need.
The volunteer shifts are:
Mondays: 2:30 p - 5:30 p (afternoon)*
Tuesdays: 9:30 a -12:00 p (morning)*
*If you are not able to volunteer for the entire shift, we can still use your help! While most volunteers work every week, we can certainly work with your availability. One hour a month to three hours a week, and everything in between, just let us know what you want to do!
Volunteer tasks may include:
Greeting participants and helping them select food
Restocking shelves during downtime
Sorting incoming donations
Weigh food and helping participants to their car
-No experience is necessary! We treat our Food Shelf like a grocery store, and we can teach you everything you need to know about food safety and product display.
-Staff will work with each volunteer to find the best opportunity.
-Lifting is not a requirement, as there are always plenty of people around to pick up that last heavy box.
