Kent County Community Action collaborates with several partners throughout Kent County to distribute United State Department of Agriculture (USDA) food to eligible households on a quarterly basis. Our one-day distribution will include providing eligible households with a box of food from The Emergency Food Assistance Program (TEFAP).

We are looking for about 20-35 volunteers per shift. Volunteer opportunities include helping direct traffic, registering clients for food, packing dry or frozen items, and distributing food to people's vehicles. We will be outside. Please see below for time frames available, and other requirements including volunteer registration. Once registration is complete, we will send you an email asking what shift you can work. When you confirm your shift, we will send another email with parking and check in instructions.

Teenagers 14+ are welcome to volunteer if an adult guardian goes with them.

Official distribution time starts at 9 AM and goes till 1 PM or While Supplies Last. We are asking for volunteers to come from either 8:00 AM to 2:30 PM or to pick shifts. There are multiple shifts 8:00am - 10:00am, 10:00am - 12:00pm, and12:30pm - 2:30pm.
