Food Distribution to Low-Income Seniors

Save to Favorites

ORGANIZATION: Burbank Housing Management Corporation

This volunteer opportunity represents a partnership between Burbank Housing and the Redwood Empire Food Bank.

Burbank Housing is the North Bay's largest affordable housing organization. We have 65 properties across Sonoma County. Vinecrest is one of our low-income senior properties in Windsor.

Our Resident Services Department partners with organizations in the community to provide programs and services on-site that benefit our residents. We partner with the Redwood Empire Food Bank to get free, fresh produce and shelf-stable items out to our residents.

We are seeking a new lead volunteer at Vinecrest for our food distribution. The lead volunteer is accompanied by others but they are the person we can count on being there each time to help set up tables and assist REFB staff with the distribution.

Distribution occurs every 2nd and 4th Wednesday of the month from 3:00-4:00 PM but with set-up and break-down, total volunteer time would be 2:30-4:30 PM.

On behalf of our senior residents at Vinecrest, we appreciate you considering volunteering with us!
