Are you passionate about making a difference in your local community? Do you have a vehicle and some spare time to help those in need? We have an incredible opportunity that will allow you to directly impact the lives of local families facing food insecurity. The Chico Salvation Army feeds about 200 local families every week and we are looking for food pickup drivers.

Your role is crucial in ensuring that no good food goes to waste and reaches the families who need it the most.
