Volunteer to Deliver Food Boxes

Each box contains approximately one week’s worth of non-perishable food weighing anywhere from 30lbs-40lbs as well as about 3-4 grocery bags of additional food such as bread, fresh produce and protein items when available. For many recipients, volunteers delivering their box is often one of the few visitors they receive, offering a bright spot in their difficult lives. By signing up to be a one-time Food Box volunteer, you can truly make a difference in the life of a fellow Utahn in need.

Food Box Volunteers can deliver a maximum of four boxes per vehicle , equating to roughly 2 hours of service. Delivering food boxes can be a great family volunteer activity! Many of our clients are individuals with low or compromised immune systems, we ask that if you are feeling ill that you do not sign up for this project.
