Senior Food Box Packing

Come be a part of our team as we pack food boxes for seniors through the Commodity Supplemental Food Program (CSFP)!

Volunteers will help build and organize boxes filled with nutritious items for older adults in our community. You may also assist with additional tasks such as sorting food, packing, and light cleaning as needed. 

What to Expect: This is an active volunteer role—please be prepared to stand and lift boxes weighing up to 30 lbs. 

• Gloves will be provided for your comfort and safety. 
• Closed-toe shoes are required (no Crocs, clogs, sandals, etc.). 
• Please wear school - or work - appropriate clothing (eg. t-shirts, jeans, or shorts no shorter than 3–5 inches above the knee). 
• To help keep everyone healthy, we kindly ask that you only attend if you’re feeling well. If you’re experiencing symptoms like a fever, cough, sore throat, or stomach issues, please stay home and rest.
• Youth Volunteers: Ages 12–15 must be accompanied by an adult or guardian. Ages 16 and up may volunteer independently. 

We’re excited to have you join us in supporting our neighbors. Thank you for helping make a difference!
