We are looking for volunteers to help us out in our weekly, mobile food pantry. Volunteers can assist in various ways such as:
· Set up, bagging groceries, and distribution.
· Drivers to pick up food at various locations & drop items off at food pantry location.
· Greeting and helping to keep count of the attendees.
· Grantwriting and fundraising to help us expand operations and continue sustainability.
· Social media marketing to let the public know about our free food pantry program.
We've been operating the food distribution program for 3 years but we've scaled up due to COVID now operating Wednesdays through Fridays weekly.
