We're looking for 4-6 volunteers in Fridays to help organize food packages for our clients!

How this works:

Sorting area set up (9:10am):

Set up the sorting area for assembling food packages (requires lifting and setting up tables)

Unload the van (10am):

Help unload food boxes and packages from the delivery van and bring them to the sorting area (requires lifting items weighing between 5-10kg)

Prepare food packages (11am):

Assemble packages for delivery.
