9 to 11am, Wednesday mornings
The Wednesday Market is a free, open-to-all program which collects donations from Whole Foods Market and re-distributes them to anyone in the community who needs them.
We are looking for volunteers to help unload, sort, and distribute donated goods. This is a fun, fast-paced opportunity which allows face-to-face interaction with those you are serving. Must be able to lift 20lbs. Basic food safety knowledge a plus.
