Through online and in-person connection, creative organizing, group support, and powerful community projects, Eat for the Earth transforms communities and empowers people to be agents of transformation, confidently making dietary changes to reduce their contribution to climate change and other environmental disasters, and influencing others to do the same. Eat for the Earth uses volunteers for a variety of activities and functions.
Help with Biometric Testing: We use volunteer healthcare providers to administer biometric tests (lipid panel, glucose, blood pressure) onsite for our diet intervention programs. Tests are administered at the start and end of each round so participants can see their progress and we can track data. We also use lay volunteers at these times to check participants' weight and height and calculate BMI.
We are happy to provide training, supervision, leads, and other supports to volunteers.
