About
The Northeast Emergency Food Program (NEFP) serves more than 2000 low-income people every month with a shopping cart full of fresh produce, meat, basic dry goods, as well as clothes and personal care items. Volunteers needed to sort food donations and stock shelves in the morning, and to shop with clients in the afternoon.
We are set up like a grocery store, and have clients shop around themselves, choosing what to take. We believe this method upholds the dignity of our clients and respects their cultural, religious, and personal dietary restrictions.
We are open Tuesday, Thursday, and Saturday.
Great way to earn community service hours for school.
Special need: Volunteers needed the first and second Saturdays of each month, 1 - 4 pm.
