The Cornerstone Food Cupboard, a vital resource for our community, operates entirely with the help of dedicated volunteers. At this time, we are in urgent need of extra hands to ensure that all families have enough to eat. Your contribution can make a significant difference in the lives of many.
Volunteer Opportunities
Mondays and/or Fridays:
- Pickup and Delivery: Some volunteers are needed to pick up grocery store food donations, such as produce, meat, bread, and pastries, using Cornerstone’s van and deliver these items to the Food Cupboard.
- Processing and Packing: Other volunteers process these donations and pack bags of food for distribution to the families we serve.
Volunteers for these roles are needed on an ongoing basis from 9:00 a.m. until 12:30 p.m.
First, Second, and/or Fourth Saturdays:
- Preparation and Distribution: Volunteers prepare bags of food for distribution, check clients in at the door, and distribute the food bags to the families who come on Saturdays.
Saturday volunteer shifts are from 10:30 a.m. until 2:00 p.m. As a Saturday volunteer, you can choose to work one Saturday a month or more if you prefer.
