Atlantic Outreach Group strives to empower vulnerable communities by connecting them to resources necessary for their success. Volunteer Delivery Drivers deliver prepacked food pantry bags directly to our clients using their own vehicle. Volunteers in this opportunity should be comfortable with calling clients to inform them of their ETA. This is a great opportunity to complete with a friend or family while supporting those impacted by food insecurity! Deliveries take place every Tuesday, Wednesday, and Friday. We ask drivers to arrive at the food pantry between 9:30 am and 10:00 am. Deliveries are typically completed within 1-2 hours. Volunteers can commit to just one or all three shifts, depending on their availability, but we do prefer a weekly commitment.
