As a part of the National Association of Letter Carriers “Stamp Out Hunger” food drive, our local post office is teaming up with our Holland community to gather food donations for shelters, food pantries, and other agencies which offer assistance to those in need. This function serves as the biggest food drive event for our organization! On average, the Postal Food Drive collects between 50,000-60,000 pounds of food from local residences to distribute to partner organizations, including Community Action House.
We need volunteers to help sort the food donated by our generous community on Saturday, May 18th! Volunteers in this role must be able to lift and move bags/boxes of food. Plan to be standing for the entire shift. Join us in the Salvation Army warehouse in Holland (104 Clover St.) to help sort these donations. Shifts are as follows:
- 9am-12pm: Helping set up and sorting donated items (snacks provided!)
- 12pm-3pm: Sorting donated items (lunch provided!)
- 3pm-6pm: Sorting donated items and helping to tear down and clean up at the Salvation Army (snacks provided!)
Please only sign up if you are sure you can make it. As partners of this event, we've committed to bringing this specific amount of people! If something changes and you're no longer able to make it, please update your response or reach out to our team at volunteer@communityactionhouse.org
Participating volunteers should wear their Action House t-shirt! If you don't have one, please email your name & t-shirt size to our Volunteer Coordinator, Nicole Funckes at volunteer@communityactionhouse.org and she can help get you one!
