Volunteer Opportunity - Drivers Needed - The Salvation Army

Throughout the year, The Salvation Army provides critical food services to help ensure our neighbors are fed year-round. This work begins with our drivers, who play a vital role in picking up and delivering food throughout our community.

• Deliver hot meals to community centers during the week
• Monday–Friday | Approximately 10:15 AM – 1:00 PM, serving multiple locations
• Food Bank pickups and deliveries:
  • Monday at 9:00 AM – Deliver to The Salvation Army Pantry
  • Tuesday at 10:00 AM – Deliver to Barberton Salvation Army
  • Thursday at 9:00 AM – Deliver to our Maple Street location
• Monthly Diaper Bank pickup in North Canton
• Deliver food for the University of Akron Campus Cupboard and pop-up pantries
• Transport meals for the Community Shower Bus program

Because of these many programs, we are in constant need of volunteer drivers.

What to Expect:

• Training provided by experienced drivers and Salvation Army staff
• Volunteer times vary depending on the project, and we are happy to work with your schedule
• The Salvation Army provides insurance for volunteers driving our vans, minivans, and box trucks

Requirements:

Every time you volunteer to drive, you become the first step in helping families, children, and individuals in need.
