Lemondrop Community Food Outreach - Claremont MN

Save to Favorites

ORGANIZATION: LEMONDROP PRODUCTIONS INC (Lemondrop Farm Sanctuary & Community Outreach)

Lemondrop Community Outreach Giveaway

Lemondrop is looking for 3-5 dedicated volunteers to help with our Community Food Outreach in Claremont Minnesota.

Volunteers will need the following:

-To be able to pass a background check
-Have a drivers license
-Have a interview with Lemondrop's California Regional Director
-Willing and able to dedicate up to 2 hours per week of time to volunteering.

What we need are people who will be willing to go to local businesses and pick up donations of day old bread, or other edible foods, and deliver it to local communities that are impoverished or in need. All that is required, is for the volunteer to drop the food to a specific location within the community, they do not need to stay, or hand deliver the food (we have another volunteer who does this portion of the work). The stores may be up to 30 minutes away from the community, so the volunteer needs to be willing to drive to the store and deliver immediately after picking it up.

More details will be provided once a potential volunteer passes a background check (these are only done to ensure that volunteers have no history of violent behavior or trafficking).

(Note: Our Lemondrop Minnesota location will be opening in April-May of 2020. We are looking to set up volunteers ahead of our grand opening, so that programs can be launched instantly once we are officially open.)

At our Community Outreach we provide food, clothing and household items directly to more than 1000 people in need each week at our Tallahassee area distribution alone. We estimate that we reach around 150-300 people at our California location each week.
