Grocery Packing for Seniors

One of the services Rocky's Senior Nutrition Program offers low-income seniors, is a food box through the Commodity Supplemental Food Program (CSFP). Every two months, we distribute boxes consisting of a combination of dry cereals, shelf-stable milk, canned fruits and vegetables, pasta, canned meat (beef, chicken, or tuna), juices and an array of other essential food items. These products help our client's supplement their monthly nutrition needs, and thus aid with their expenses of essential daily living.

Large pallets of food are delivered to a warehouse. We need your help to sort and package these items into single client allotments so they can be delivered to the seniors who need them.

This is a PHYSICALLY DEMANDING JOB. Volunteers must be able to lift at least 25 lbs. and should be comfortable standing/working on cement floors in a warehouse. That being said, you can get a great workout while helping seniors! This is an unheated/uncooled warehouse, so please keep this in mind if you are interested in helping. Depending on the season, dressing in layers is a good idea. There are 3 time-slots:

Thursday, January 20 - 8:15 am-12:30 pm and 12:30 pm-4:45 pm

Friday, January 21 - 8:15 am-12:30 pm

***Please bring a drink and snack if desired.
