Our volunteers work in the Product Recovery area or our Repacking Clean Room where we process donated food for distribution. This is a set of basic quality and date checking, sorting, labeling, and repacking steps.
**Volunteers must be at least 10 years of age, and anyone under the age of 16 must be accompanied by an adult.
Volunteers also help in non-food project support roles such as cleaning, letter stuffing, and miscellaneous admin duties.
Training will be provided on-site at the beginning of the shift.
