· Help with set up, bagging groceries, sorting food and distribution.

· Drivers to pick up groceries at various locations & drop items off at our food pantry locations or delivering them to inbound seniors.

· Greeting pantry clients and helping to keep count of the attendees.

-Breaking down boxes and clean up.

· Grantwriting and fundraising to help us expand operations and continue the sustainability of our program.

· Social media marketing to let the public know about our free food pantry program.

We operate Wednesdays through Fridays weekly at several locations throughout Los Angeles County. Volunteers are welcome to some groceries after their shift has been completed. We source our food from Whole Foods, Trader Joe's, various Farmer's Markets so the food is high quality.
