Description

Our Mobile Pantry program provides food to our neighbors in need every day. Food from the Dare to Care warehouse is taken out into our 13-county service area and distributed with the help of volunteers.

On Thursday, August 13, our Mobile Pantry will make its way to Henryville, IN. We need some help from 3 or 4 volunteers. Our clients will be given tickets first-come, first-served and will be able to get the food from the Dare to Care distribution area once it is their turn.

Volunteers are needed to:

  • set-up tables to place food on (stations will be set up with at least 6 feet of distance between each)
  • help distribute food (clients will be appropriately distanced and one client will be served at a time in each station)
  • help consolidate large amounts of produce into smaller bags
  • add certain foods into boxes to make it easier for quick distribution to clients
  • break down boxes and collect plastic for recycling

This opportunity will last until we run out of food--no longer than 2 hours. Masks and closed-toe shoes will be required for volunteers. We will provide gloves for the project.
