Peninsula Food Runners

We are seeking volunteers that can pick up food in the mornings or mid-afternoons from local companies and then drive the food to non-profits that feed their clientele. For example, the food might be driven to a local nonprofit that feeds the homeless, elderly, children, recovering addicts, etc.

Volunteers use their own cars and each food run takes about 90 minutes.

Check out our video on our website explaining what we do: www.peninsulafoodrunners.org

Also check out our Facebook page: https://www.facebook.com/PeninsulaFoodRunners

If you can help us out once a week or twice a month, it would really help.

It's satisfying and flexible and we are organized!

Let's keep this food out of land fill and into bodies.

Please respond through Volunteer Match, contact Hoai-An, (408) 726-2742 and she can tell you more or sign up at: www.peninsulafoodrunners.org

Thank you!
