    Description

    Pickup Food Donations for IOCP Food Shelf

    Each week the IOCP Food Shelf serves 200+ households. Help make that possible by picking up large donations of groceries from local retailers, bringing everything back to the IOCP Food Shelf, and help unload so prep teams can get donations out onto shelves for shoppers. This job requires some heavy lifting, volunteers should be comfortable lifting up to 50 lbs.

    Volunteers can use their personal vehicles (suv or vans) or have the choice to use the IOCP cargo van or box truck (training provided).

    Driving on behalf of IOCP requires a Driving Record check prior to volunteering.
