    Description

    Kent County Community Action (Senior) Food Distributions

    This opportunity consists of distributing nutritionally balanced monthly food boxes for The Commodity Supplemental Food Program. This program provides nutrient-rich foods to older adults with low-income. Each box is packed based on the MyPlate nutritional guide and may contain cereal, fruit juice, canned items(fruit, vegetables, meat, and poultry/fish), dry or canned beans or peanut butter, pasta or rice, shelf stable or dry milk, and cheese. You will be assigned a station either where you are checking a client in, helping them sign up, and/ or passing out a box to our local neighbors.

    Teenagers 14+ are welcome to volunteer if an adult guardian accompanies them.
