    Description

    Volunteer with Food Link (Roxbury location) - food sorting and delivery

    We are looking for volunteers for Food Link's secondary Roxbury location (main location is in Arlington) who are interested in food rescue and who want to make a difference in the community by reducing food waste and helping to provide food to people in need.

    Food Link is powered by over 350+ dedicated volunteers who work to collect, sort, and distribute food to our community partners.

    In Roxbury, volunteer shifts are available Monday through Friday between 8am and 3:30pm. In Roxbury, Food Link currently focuses on project-based shifts, so we do not yet offer regular weekly shifts. We encourage you to sign up to volunteer, as we frequently announce one-time or short-term opportunities via email/text that match sudden needs.

    Tasks may include sorting food at the warehouse at 30 Northampton St or driving your own car for deliveries to our recipient agencies. And stay tuned – our schedule is expanding! We may offer more regular volunteer opportunities in Roxbury soon. You can also check out our Arlington schedule if interested.

    Submit your contact information if you are interested and our volunteer coordinator will get back to you with next steps. You can also read more about our volunteer opportunities on our website: https://www.foodlinkma.org/get-involved1--
