Dare to Care relies on food donations in order to support our neighbors in need. When food is donated through food/fund drives, retail partnerships, or other means, it needs to be sorted in our warehouse before it is ready for an agency to distribute.
We rely on volunteers daily to help inspect food and sort it into appropriate categories. Other projects during this volunteer shift can include labeling food, consolidating large bags of produce into smaller bags, creating food boxes for clients, and more.
We have limited all volunteer shifts to no more than 12 volunteers at a time--please do not bring more volunteers than what you have signed up for. When registering for more than one person, please respond as a "Team" and add the names of those coming, if possible. These projects require volunteers to be at least 13 years old and to wear closed-toe shoes in order to participate. The projects also require walking and may include light lifting (less than 20 pounds).
IF YOU OR ANYONE IN YOUR HOME FEELS ILL OR IS QUARANTINED FOR HEALTH REASONS, PLEASE STAY HOME. Volunteers may be temperature tested upon arrival and asked to leave if running a high fever. Volunteers are required to wear a mask/face covering and gloves onsite. Volunteers should also wash their hands or use sanitizer when entering the building.
