    Description

    Help Provide Access to Nutrition for Food-Insecure Neighbors

    Seton Center volunteers are responsible for offering: safety and excellent hospitality to all who visitor by proviing a dignified experience of charity; ability and willingness to train and cross-train in the tasks needed in the Outreach Office and Seton Thrift Store; and hope to our under-served, under-resourced neighbors.

The tasks particular to this opportunity are assisting with: cleaning and organizing Seton Center's food pantry; plastic, cardboard and trash recycling; tracking inventory; rotating foods; stocking shelves; food purchase pick-ups; food drop set-up, execution and tear down on the last two Thursdays of the month.
