You can help make it possible for WayForward to have an incoming supply of food and clothing for guests. As a Donor Greeter you will:
- Warmly greet food or clothing donors at the Distribution Center and follow established messaging and procedures
- Help donors fill out a donation slip and make sure the information is complete
- Sort food donations, as time permits
- Clean and tidy volunteer area at end of shift
Donations ebb and flow so this is a great volunteer assignment for someone who is flexible and willing to help sort food, complete other small tasks, or who would like some quiet time to work on something of their own – read a book, bring a craft, work on your laptop, etc.
The ideal volunteer will be available for a minimum of one regular shift on a weekly, bi-weekly, or monthly basis for at least 3 months. Of course, this is with the understanding that a volunteer will likely need flexibility for vacations, sickness, appointments, etc.
Help ensure that WayForward’s food pantry inventory is maintained, organized, and safe so that guests can receive the nutrition they need to thrive.
You will join an experienced team of volunteers on our first shift of the day from 7:30am-9:30am to:
- Safely label and store incoming food in 3 different temperature zones
- Sort incoming food donations and stock the food pantry shelves
- Miscellaneous tasks to keep the warehouse area in the Distribution Center clean, organized, and running smoothly
- Work as part of a team to complete all tasks in a safe manner (including team lifting)
- Represent WayForward’s values at all times
The ideal volunteer will be available for a regular weekly or bi-weekly shift. Of course, this is with the understanding that a volunteer may need flexibility for vacation, sickness, appointments, etc.
Shifts available Monday through Friday.
