Our volunteers recover healthy meals from commercial donor cafeterias and deliver them to specified nearby non-profit organizations. Every meal saved stays out of the landfill, helping the environment, while also nourishing our community in need.
The volunteer role would involve:
- Picking up meals from our donor cafeteria, and
- Delivering these meals to our non-profit community partner/s in the nearby area.
Each volunteer task will take approximately one hour including travel time between donor and recipient. Pick-up and delivery times will be between 1-3pm on a week day (not at weekends). We require volunteers to drive their own car. We welcome regular participation but will work with your schedule.
This pick up will not happen during the summer months of June, July and August.
We are looking for volunteers in the following counties: Morris and Essex counties
