Volunteers are needed to sort through fresh produce and refrigerated food donated to Care and Share from our local grocery stores. These items are then loaded onto a Mobile Market truck to distribute directly to our neighbors in need the very same day.
Care and Share Food Bank Mobile Markets are like grocery stores on wheels! Neighbors select the food they want, bag it, and take it home, all from the Mobile Market.
We need help from volunteers like you! You will have the opportunity to provide neighbors access to fresh food, beautiful produce, and quality ingredients. This includes performing a date and quality check, packing crates, preparing pre-made bags of food, and assisting with other general duties of the Pueblo Care and Share Distribution Center as needed. These are physically demanding shifts which may include lifting up to 40 lbs. repeatedly, standing, walk, bending, and working in a cooler.
This project is for volunteers age 9 and up.

Mission Statement
At Care and Share Food Bank, our core purpose is to bridge the gap between hunger and abundance. Our mission is to provide food, partnering opportunities, and education to combat hunger and food insecurity in Southern Colorado communities. Our vision is an end to hunger in Southern Colorado.
Description
At Care and Share Food Bank, we believe that no one should go hungry. Every day, we provide food to our partner agencies across Southern Colorado for our neighbors in need because well-fed communities are better for us all. Care and Share exists to ensure that the one in seven Southern Coloradoans at risk of hunger have access to enough healthy and nutritious food to thrive. We know that children without adequate access to food cannot develop successfully, families cannot plan for their future, and seniors find it more difficult to remain independent.
As Southern Colorado's only food bank, Care and Share provides food to over 300 agencies; emergency shleters, food pantries and soup kitchens across our 31-county service area.CAUSE AREAS
