Help us feed hungry seniors by loading boxes of food into delivery vehicles! Share Food Program needs your support to feed our most vulnerable population of senior citizens. Share sends nearly 7,000 boxes of shelf-stable food out to senior citizens every month, and over half of our recipients are mobility-impaired: whether they are disabled, immunocompromised, and/or just don't have access to reliable transportation, many of our senior food box recipients cannot travel out to our pantries and other distribution sites to pick up their monthly food boxes. For this reason, we run a home delivery distribution every Friday, during which volunteers help us to load boxes into delivery drivers' vehicles. We have a particular need for volunteers that are comfortable with the repetitive lifting of a 30-pound box, but for those with lifting restrictions, we also need support with loading lighter blocks of cheese into each delivery vehicle.

| Inclement Weather Plan: Since our senior citizens rely on these monthly shipments of boxes, and last-minute rescheduling can provide difficult, we will do everything we can to make sure our home delivery distribution runs every Friday, rain or shine! We can provide a shade/rain canopy, ponchos, cold water, and extra gloves in the case of unpleasant weather. In the case of extreme weather such as thunder, lightning, extreme cold, and/or extreme heat, we will be sure to reach out to all registered participants to keep them informed of any cancellations, rescheduling, or delays. If weather is deemed to be unsafe, we cannot have any volunteers outside until such weather has passed. | |
