VOLUNTEER NEEDS – MARCH 20

VOLUNTEERS

Many of you have asked how you can help volunteer during this time – thank you! 

To protect the health of our volunteers and staff, we have made changes to our warehouse volunteer program. We will have short session volunteer opportunities to help us repack food to distribute to people in need. This will enable us to reduce the number of volunteers at each shift, spread projects out and focus on essential projects at this time.

In an effort to ensure we follow social distancing and avoid large gatherings, we ask that only volunteers who have registered show up for a shift. We genuinely appreciate all support; however, we cannot accept drop-ins.

If you would like to sign up for one of our shorter shifts, please do so here. We will be offering up to six daily sorts that will help support our agencies and Mobile Market by packing bulk product and building emergency food boxes. Thank you for your support!

The health and safety of our volunteers, clients, partners, staff and entire community is paramount. In keeping with CDC guidance, we ask that adults 65 or older, people with serious underlying conditions or who are exhibiting symptoms of any illness, anyone who has traveled internationally, and/or is in any other high-risk group stay home at this time.

Ag donor spotlight: Reser’s Fine Foods – May 17

With about 90% of the food we distribute being donated, cultivating strong relationships is central to our mission.

Reser’s Fine Foods is just one of those valued relationships, and their generous support has grown significantly over the last few years, donating items like mashed potatoes and macaroni and cheese.

“The Reser’s team is not only a strong partner in helping fight hunger,” Mike added. “They are friends.”

Food as Culture – May 10

Food as Culture – May 10

In addition to being nourishing and life giving, food is also one of the greatest connectors. Food bonds people together. It shares a story in and of itself and then stories are shared, again, when bread is broken together. One of the leading “getting to know you” activities is going out to dinner.

In The Kitchen, we believe in the power of nutrition but know that nourishment goes best hand in hand with community.
