We are in need of new VAN drivers to assist with food rescue!

Van driving can be strenuous - you should be able to lift 50 pounds repeatedly. Drivers also must have a valid drivers license and carry car insurance. To make the lift a bit lighter, we would like to start sending 2 volunteers on each run.

We are looking for volunteers during the following times:

  • Mondays 8am-12pm
  • Wednesdays 8am - 12pm
  • Fridays 8am-12pm
  • Saturdays 8am-12pm

1 Shift

  • 08:00 AM to 12:00 AM CST - Spots available: 4
    Typical shift hours occur Monday - Saturday

About Loaves & Fishes Community Services

Location:

1871 High Grove Lane, 580 Exchange Court, Naperville / Aurora, IL 60540, US

Mission Statement

Our mission is to end hunger and transform lives! Loaves & Fishes Community Services was founded in 1984 and as a 501(c)(3), not-for-profit corporation. Aside from our weekly grocery shopping, we also offer trainings, certified public benefits, emergency financial assistance and more.

Description

Loaves + Fishes serves more than 10,000 clients each week throughout DuPage, Kane, Kendall, and Will Counties! This requires hundreds of volunteers each week in all areas of operation. Our volunteer roles vary from driving to sorting and packing food to loading carts into our clients trunks. Most shifts are 2.5 hours but training only takes a few minutes. Spanish fluency is always a need but not required.

We always need more volunteer support and could not help our community without it!
