Family Food Sorts Days are only open to families with children between the ages of 5-10 who are otherwise unable to volunteer at our other shifts due to safety concerns. Everyone in your application must be from the same household and must be able to work in close proximity to one another in order to be approved.
Important information to read before you sign up:
All volunteers must be scheduled. Each family must sign up individually.
When you Express Interest in participating in a Family Food Sort Day, you will be required to tell us how many children, their ages and how many adults are in your family.
After submitting your Express Interest request, please wait for an official email confirmation from us. You will be notified if there is space for your family, or if the shift is full & you have been placed on the Waiting List.
