NH Food Bank

Every day, the NH Food Bank receives non-perishable food donations such as canned goods that need to be inspected, sorted, and categorized. Volunteers involved in this process inspect these donations for any signs of contamination or damaged packaging and sort all of the products in good condition into boxes to be distributed to our partner agencies across the state. All volunteers receive training and gloves to wear.

This task requires some bending, lifting up to 35 pounds, and standing for the duration of the activity.
**This activity takes place Mondays-Thursdays 8am-11am**
