First Tuesday Food Truck Unloading: On the first Tuesday of the month, we need assistance unloading the delivery of food from the Food Bank. This is one of our most urgent needs and a great opportunity for groups (and individuals like yourself!).

 Shift: 2pm - 4pm

Community Supper Wednesday: Every Wednesday, we need volunteers to help make food, give out fresh groceries to our guests (just this Wednesday we served roughly 160 guests!), and clean up.

 Shifts:

• 9am - 11am (kitchen or bag making)

• 11am - 1pm (kitchen or bag making)

• 1pm - 3pm (bag making and kitchen clean up)

• 3pm - 5pm (bag and meal distribution)

• 5pm - 6:30pm (bag and meal distribution and clean up)

Friday Food Basket Making: We need volunteers to help put together food baskets for our 2nd and 4th Saturday food pantry distributions. On non food pantry distribution Fridays, help with other weekly operational pantry tasks is also needed.

 Shift: 1pm - 3pm

Saturday Food Basket Distribution: On the 2nd and 4th Saturdays of the month we need help distributing food baskets (prepared on Friday) to our community guests.

 Shift: 8:30am - 1:15pm (or anytime within that)
