The Drive-Thru Food Distribution Assistant works closely in a team of 3 in the Maplewood Drive Thru to welcome senior clients, carry 30-pound boxes to clients’ cars and/or sort produce and other perishable food for dates and quality. The Commodity Supplemental Food Program (CSFP) at Second Harvest Heartland provides a monthly box of wholesome food to more than 10,000 seniors. Each month, around 2,000 seniors pick up their boxes of groceries from the Maplewood Drive Thru. In this position, volunteers will answer questions and help with other duties as needed. This is a rewarding, client-facing role that directly supports hunger relief!
Volunteers needed to serve in a substitute roll on an on-call basis (flexible scheduling!) or for a regular Friday morning or afternoon opening.

Mission Statement
The mission of Second Harvest Heartland is to end hunger through community partnerships. At Second Harvest Heartland, our volunteer partners do more than enrich our work, they ground us to our mission of ending hunger together. We integrate volunteers into all aspects of creating and delivering solutions that will free our neighbors of hunger.
Description
More than a food bank, Second Harvest Heartland is a leading partner in the policies and programs that work to end hunger, like SNAP, school meals and senior nutrition programs, and we’re an innovator in the areas where food can be the solution, like FOODRx and Minnesota Central Kitchen.
Second Harvest Heartland is a member of Feeding America, a national network of more than 200 food banks serving every state in the United States. Membership means access to millions of pounds of surplus food and grocery donations from manufacturers and producers throughout the country.
Working with our network of partners, volunteers and donors as well as people like you, our 90,000+ square feet of dry, refrigerator and freezer space is constantly accepting and distributing donations. Our fleet of trucks travels nearly half a million miles a year, picking up food donations and delivering them to local food shelves, soup kitchens, homeless shelters, senior community centers and children's after school programs. Each year we distributed more than 100 million meals to our partners in hunger-relief. Learn more at 2harvest.org.
