Food Packing

Volunteers prepare and package food to be distributed to those in need. Opportunities include sorting through donated non-perishable food items, stocking meat coolers, bagging fresh fruit, building fresh food boxes, loading emergency bags, stocking shelves, and pulling orders. Volunteers also take bulk food items such as Rice Krispies, granola, or cookies and package them into smaller sealed bags for redistribution!
