Inter-Faith Food Shuttle
All Month Long
We have a need for volunteers on our Food Recovery & Distribution routes around the holidays. This is an individual group opportunity, but I can schedule pairs if students decide to volunteer with a friend. It’s a great experience to realize how much food grocery stores would waste if it wasn’t for our efforts recovering the food and redistributing it to community partners.
We also need individuals and small groups of 6 to help us in the warehouse this holiday season sort through food drive donations. I’d love to work with WPU students this holiday season! If anyone is interested, please have them reach out to me.
