Looking for compassionate and caring volunteers to help with our weekly food distribution. Distributions take place on Tuesday's from 8:30 am to 3:30 pm (closed for lunch from 12:00 pm to 1:30 pm). Volunteers will help with set-up of tables and groceries for distribution, preparing bags of produce and perishable items for distribution, handing prepared grocery bags to clients, explaining what some of the "self choice" items are, providing direction to clients on how many of each item type they are allowed to take, and end of day storage of remaining food items.
Most people aren't available to commit to an entire day of volunteering, and we completely understand that. If you can give a few hours, especially in the afternoon, it would be very much appreciated! Thank you and we look forward to seeing you.

Mission Statement
Until there is no longer a need, the all volunteer staff of AIDS Food Store will continue to address the issue of hunger in the HIV/AIDS community, be it physical, emotional or spiritual. Whether infected or affected, AIDS Food Store will never turn you away.
Description
In 1985, a group from Christ Chapel Long Beach came together to address the issue of hunger in a community where many social service agencies were unable or unwilling to help. In November 1985, AIDS Food Store Long Beach was born, with a commitment that no one in the Ling Beach area living with HIV/AIDS disabilities would ever be without food, love and support.
Our clients are men, women and children whose lives have been impacted by HIV/AIDS disabilities. Today, after three decades of distributing many tons of food to thousands of clients, AIDS Food Store remains true to its mission.
