In-Person Volunteer Opportunity: River City Food Bank

Come fuel your passion to give back by volunteering to support the River City Food Bank on Saturday, June 26th from 10am-2pm!

Calling all volunteers to help distribute food to those who are in need! Food insecurity has increased 40% across the Sacramento region because of COVID and you can make a difference. Volunteers will be assisting River City Food Bank at their Arden location for this event. River City Food Bank serves over 80,000 families each year, providing food for those in need. Each Saturday the center in Arden hosts general distributions of food to the community between 10:00 am - 2:00pm. Volunteers MUST sign up by June 14th, as the need of the Food Bank is too great and food must be distributed to those that need it. Local Covid-19 guidelines will be followed at all times. · Closed-toe shoes · Comfortable clothing for working outdoors · Ability to stand, lift, push and pull items (many volunteers positions are physical in nature and may include long periods of standing or moving) · Arrival for shift 10 minutes early with plan to work the full session. · Complete health and safety check before shift · Wear full face mask at all times · Keep six feet apart for social distancing when possible About River City Food Bank: River City Food Bank is Sacramento’s oldest, continuously-serving food bank.
