Rocky Mountain Mutual Aid specifically delivers free and fresh boxes of groceries to people who cannot access food pantries or reliable transportation - most of our recipients identify as disabled and/or seniors. We have been doing this work on a weekly basis, thanks to a dedicated team of volunteers and community partners, since April 2020. Responsibilities include: - Creating content for weekly posts on Instagram - Storytelling through social media to generate support - Expanding our volunteer and donor outreach
