ABOUT THE STORE: The Store operates as a free grocery store allowing people to shop for their basic needs. Our mission is to nourish communities and cultivate hope by providing nutritious food choices and access to supportive services in a dignified, loving environment. This volunteer opportunity will allow you to make a tangible impact upon the local community. You'll be helping provide wholesome food to families and the food insecure in a welcoming environment while protecting dignity and fostering hope.
ABOUT THE SHIFT: Every Wednesday and Thursday morning we have volunteers help us with restocking shelves and preparing the store for customer shopping. Volunteers will be stocking shelves, deep cleaning the produce sections, restocking the produce, stacking pallets, organizing the storage room, or other miscellaneous tasks. You should be able to lift over fifty pounds, as this shift involves physical labor.
SIGN UPS: We utilize a third party website called Golden Volunteer to organize our volunteer opportunities. In addition to responding to this Need in Get Connected, volunteers must go to the Golden Volunteer website to sign up for specific days and times, linked here.
Please do not just show up at The Store to volunteer without having first signed up for a shift on Golden Volunteer.
