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 them 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: We are committed to maintaining our home delivery schedule as closely to the same weekly window as possible. Since seniors rely on these regular food shipments, cancelling or rescheduling a home delivery can adversely impact the lives of our recipients. In case of uncomfortable weather, we will provide a shade/rain canopy, ponchos, cold water, gloves, etc. to keep volunteers safe while we complete these important distributions. In the case of extreme or unsafe weather conditions, we will work to reschedule the distribution to an earlier or later time during the same day so that recipients can still receive their food on time. If we need to cancel the event or reschedule to a different date, we will make every effort to do so as soon as possible and will communicate with all registered volunteers so that they can plan accordingly. | |
