Need reliable drivers to help pick up grocery donations and bring them to food pantry (garages) near 16th St. NW and Military Ave. NW. We will go with you initially because relationships with donors are important.

Help supply free food to hundreds of hungry families. The food you haul will go into bags of groceries that are distributed in Meridian Hill Park and nearby. We began with the start of Covid 19 and people being out of work, but the need continues.

Other times and shifts available.
