We are looking for volunteers to help pickup surplus food from the Univ. of Buffalo to deliver to St. Luke's Mission of Mercy to feed people facing food insecurity. These pickups/deliveries happen every Wednesday and Friday between 10 am - 12 pm throughout the academic year. The amount of food varies, but it is always enough to fit in one car. You must have your own personal vehicle to commit to this volunteer opportunity. Volunteers can sign up to deliver food between 1-8 times per month.
