    Description

    From 9a-12p every Saturday we need a group of about 10-15 volunteers to pack food boxes for our home delivery clientele. So many of our clients do not have reliable transportation or cannot leave their house so Amazon delivers food we provide to them twice a month. The boxes of food need packed. It would entail placing 10-12 canned goods, along with pasta, rice, etc. into boxes. After filled, the boxes will need taped and placed on a pallet. Must be able to move and lift up to 20lbs. This serves a whopping 150 families per week!! So the little you will be doing will go so far.
