05/26/2016 Long Term Food Sorting Volunteers
We're looking for volunteers that want to make a routine commitment to their community, socialize with other volunteers, and keep active, while helping to feed the hungry in Arizona. Routine volunteers quickly become experts and process foods 2 to 3 times more efficiently than new volunteers! We love our regulars! How long is a long-term commitment? It's as long as you want it to be, but generally at least 6 months of weekly activity. Volunteer 4-20 hours a week, you decide. Great for winter visitors, summers off, retirees, parents with kids at school. Come make a big impact!
