Current Volunteer Needs:

Drivers

We need to increase our resource of back-up, on-call drivers for pick ups and deliveries. If you own a pick up truck or van, give us a call. We also have several trucks available for your use if you have a clean driving record. Most routes are regualarly scheduled weekday mornings. If you are interested, we will arrange for you to ride with our regular drivers and learn their route. Some needs may also include occasional pick ups of food drives from business and schools.
