An afternoon volunteer is needed to cover areas of organization, assist with food prep and food pantry support. Specifically for Thursday afternoons from 12-3pm, someone that can come in to organize as well as help us by picking up donations we receive from Chick-Fil-A, down the street. The pick up would be scheduled for 2pm.
It's an essential role that allows for Samaritan Resource Center to receive and store donations that will be distributed to homeless residents in need. A mid to large size vehicle would be ideal to complete this task.
*Use of masks is optional for our staff, volunteers and clients. We have masks, sanitizer and wipes readily available upon request.*
