Every Friday is Bonus Friday at CES. . This is when 50-150 households receive food assistance through the free produce and food line. We need some individual volunteers who are willing to come to CES to help distribute produce, which consists of standing behind a table full of vegetables and fruit and restocking as clients walk past. It is a very interactive experience and volunteers leave feeling good knowing that they helped people live a healthier life.
We need volunteers (up to 5) from 12:45 to 3 pm every Friday. Speaking Spanish would be a plus!

Mission Statement
Community Emergency Service transforms lives by serving neighbors, sharing resources and becoming community - a place where people come hungry and leave hopeful.
Description
Community Emergency Service is a multi-service non-profit organization that runs a number of food based assistance programs for Minneapolis residents. Our main programs include: Food Shelf, Meals on Wheels, Home Delivery, Bonus Friday Distribution, and East African Food Distribution.
CES is located within one of the most diverse, densely populated neighborhoods in Minneapolis; over 20,000 people live within its boundaries. 46% of families living in the Phillips neighborhood are below the federal poverty level.
At CES, we strive to serve all our neighbors in need without distinction or test. We invite support from volunteers and donors and are open to collaboration with other agencies, regardless of religious affiliation.
Will you help us move people from hunger to hope?
