Every Thursday we are open from 9-11am to receive food donations and stock/prep food for our weekly distribution on Friday. We need volunteers on Thursday to purchase, pick up, and deliver food to our facility. We need help to receive, sort, inventory, and stage the food items for our weekly distribution.

Every Friday we are open from 9-11am to distribute food to our clients in need. We need help to prep the food for handout, distribute the food, record client attendance, and maintain computer records of all distribution activities.

We also hold monthly food prep sessions where different organizations can come in and prepare handouts for our larger monthly distributions. These usually involves groups of 10-20 volunteers that can arrange a time based on their availability (e.g. evenings, weekends). It's a great way for community organizations such as Boy Scouts, Church Groups, civic groups, etc to volunteer together!
